Ranganath Mishra Commission
Recently, the Central Government informed the Supreme Court that it had taken a decision to not accept Justice Ranganath Mishra’s Commision’s report.
- The Commission’s 2007 report on Religious and Linguistic Minorities had recommended permitting Dalits who converted into Islam and Christianity to avail Scheduled Caste status.
- The pleas argue that exclusion of Christian and Muslim Dalits from the list of Scheduled Caste was discriminatory.
- Currently as per the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) Order, 1950 only Dalits of Hindus, Sikh and Buddhist faith can be categorised as SCs.
