Supreme Court dismisses PIL challenging caste enumeration in upcoming Census
Supreme Court of India has dismissed a Public Interest Litigation challenging the Centres decision to conduct caste enumeration during the upcoming Census, stating that the exercise falls within the domain of government policy-making. The apex court observed that collecting caste-related data can help authorities assess the population of backward classes and design targeted welfare schemes and social justice measures more effectively. The ruling is being seen as a significant development in the ongoing national debate over caste-based data collection and policy planning.
