Swarup refers to para 165 of NM Thomas - why the word vary was not included in 341(2)? only include or exclude...why because this is a list born out of the constitution. never before it could have been caste mylords because it would have been a foul on 16(2). 16(2) specifically says pls do not discriminate on the basis of caste. Tribe incidentally not there in 16(2) but caste is there, therefore Thomas says very specifically, this is a class. This is a spl class - I am using the exact phraseology
