💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court has asked the Centre to reconsider the nomenclature used in caste certificates for scheduled castes, suggesting a change to avoid offensive terms. The court noted the importance of sensitivity towards caste terminology while maintaining the rights and benefits for these communities. The Centre argued that any change in nomenclature could affect their rights and benefits. The court has postponed the matter for six weeks, asking the Centre to examine the issue.
