K Suresh Opposes Supreme Court Verdict on SC-ST Reservations

By A Staff Reporter

In Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, Congress MP K Suresh voiced strong opposition to the recent Supreme Court judgment regarding the sub-categorization of SC-ST reservations. Suresh described the verdict as "highly objectionable," arguing that this is not the appropriate time to implement such measures within the SC-ST community.

Suresh further criticized the idea of imposing a creamy layer within the SC-ST community, questioning the feasibility of determining which SC families are financially sound without a caste census. He emphasized the need for a caste census to accurately assess the economic conditions of SC-ST families, urging the Government of India to consider the potential consequences of the Supreme Court's decision.
