refering to yesterdays discussion on the creamy layer and how decision in Jarnail Singh identifies creamy layer as excluded from SC/ST, Gopal S : in practice on the ground there has been no office memorandum that I know or the state may assist which they have issued for the creamy layer removal among SC/ST, they have one old 1992 OM which removed creamy layer in OBCs

Gopal S concludes. Sr Adv KK Venugopal makes his submissions

Venugopal : i had appeared before the 5 judged in the Andhra Pradesh HC in Chinnaiah. they had upheld the subcategorisation of 61 SCs into 4 divisions based upon advancement over the years, they had given 7% to the weakest, 6% of the jobs and educational institutions seat to another group and the best and the highest of them 1% -1% this was upheld on the basis that subcategorisation was permissible. Chinnaiah (SC decision) reversed it.
