Nath J : Why are you resisting it?... ... Is Subclassification Permissible Within SC/ST Reservation ? Supreme Court Reserves Judgment [Live Updates Day 3]

Nath J : Why are you resisting it? Subcategorisation will aid others within that caste also to come up.. otherwise only the one of segment will get the benefits

Gavai J : it is not like that they will not get any benefits....all under SCs will get benefits you see

Swarup: the moment they pick up mazhbhi and valmiki the classification is on the basis of caste , second exception this role they are assuming to themselves, which is for the parliament.

CJI: 16(4) says any backward class, so it can be a class in a class aswell. it cannot be an artificial class.
