SC/ST Groups Protest: The Bharat Bandh, organized by the Reservation Bachao Sangharsh Samiti, is set for August 21, with SC/ST groups in Rajasthan lending their support. The protest is in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling on SC/ST reservations.
SC/ST Groups Protest: Supreme Court’s Controversial Ruling
The Supreme Court recently ruled that states can create sub-categories within SC/ST groups, prioritizing those in greater need. This decision has sparked widespread debate and led to the Bharat Bandh, demanding a reversal of the ruling.
Security Measures in Place
In anticipation of potential unrest during the bandh, top police officials conducted a meeting to ensure readiness. Enhanced deployment across districts has been ordered, with a focus on maintaining law and order.
Support from Various Organizations
The Bharat Bandh is expected to gain support from various social and political organizations, emphasizing the protest’s aim to challenge what many see as an unjust court decision.
