Why did the Supreme Court create a stir by discussing the creamy layer among SCs
Supreme Court's take on the creamy layer causes public uproar.
- The Supreme Court's discussion on the creamy layer among Scheduled Castes (SCs) stirred controversy as it raised questions about the reservation policy's effectiveness and impact on upliftment of marginalized communities.
- Many believe that the creamy layer concept was initially meant for Other Backward Classes and extending it to SCs could dilute the benefits intended for less privileged members within the community.
- Critics argue that addressing the issue of creamy layer within SCs could exacerbate existing caste-based inequalities and hinder social justice goals.
- The public uproar reflected concerns over potential implications on reservation policies, social inclusion, and the overall welfare of disadvantaged groups in Indian society.
