Abstract
The Indian higher judiciary, particularly the
Supreme Court of India, has played a constructive role in the implementation of
the affirmative actions undertaken by the state to impart the concept of social
justice. The Supreme Court in E.V. Chinnaiah v State of A.P. (2004) laid
down the ratio that sub classification of the scheduled castes and scheduled
tribes category (hereinafter to be called as SCs & STs) is not permissible
under Article 14 and 15 of the Constitution, however in State of Punjab v.
Davinder Singh, 2024 INSC 562 Supreme
Court now has reversed the ratio and declared that such kind of a sub
classification of the SCs & STs could be done by the state under said
Articles of the constitution. In this background, it is necessary to make a
detailed analysis of this judgment of the Supreme Court.
