💨 Abstract

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh discussed the history of Article 15(4) in the Indian Constitution, which was introduced through the First Amendment in 1951. This Article allows the State to make special provisions for socially and educationally backward classes and Scheduled Castes and Tribes. The First Amendment also introduced the Ninth Schedule to protect land reform laws from judicial review.
