Sr Advocate Kapil Sibal makes his submissions

Sibal : I think that the constitution makers realised this and they also realised that this is not going to stop. They knew that it is unlikely going to stop anytime soon. There are two basic assumptions that Chinnaiah made which were wrong - 1. they considered the SCs in the order as homogenous group, they assumed they represent a homogenous group, that assumption is based on no factual data, no analysis of that data, infact heterogeneity in inherent in that

CJI: actually homogenous nature of all the entries is for the purposes of designation. They are homogenous in the sense that each one of them is a scheduled caste but your argument is that there is no homogeneity either in terms of the sociological profile, economic development etc
