Explained: Supreme Court Judgement That Only Centre, Not States, Can Grant Backward Class Status To Groups by Swarajya Staff - May 10, 2021 01:47 PM The Supreme Court of India. (Wikimedia Commons) Snapshot The 102nd Constitutional Amendment Act makes the process of identifying the backward classes the same as that for SCs and STs. Four days ago, in the Maratha reservation case, the Supreme Court of India (SC) passed a ruling on another important matter — the 102nd Constitutional Amendment Act (CAA) which concerns itself with socially and educationally backward classes (SEBC). Under the Indian Constitution, apart from Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST), the government can also provide reservation benefits to the SEBC (although reservation cannot be claimed as a matter of right, the Supreme Court has held in Indra Sawhney case).
