CJI: for instance of a political party in a state may regard that minority as a very valid constituent of its vote block does that mean that therefore though numerically in minority because it is an important ingredient of the ruling block therefore it will be denied minority status under article 30

Dwivedi: I am talking in terms of the community which was ruling, I am talking of 1920 when a particular community was ruling to the governor general take the community as a whole, neither Muslims nor hindus were part of the govt. we were subjects alike and we equal in the sufferings

CJI: therefore both the hindu and Muslims would fulfill the indicia of minority status
