The Supreme Court’s historic judgment on Arundhatiyar’s internal reservation is a huge victory in the journey for social justice.
State Secretary of the Marxist Communist Party K. Balakrishnan said.
In this regard K. Balakrishnan said in a statement that the Supreme Court’s historic verdict that the Arundhatiyars will be allocated internal quota is a great victory in the journey of social justice and the verdict given by the Supreme Court is a huge victory for the struggle on behalf of the Marxist Communist Party to grant internal quota to the Arundhathiyar people in Tamil Nadu. K said that the Marxist Communist Party welcomes this verdict with joy. Balakrishnan said.
A 7-judge bench of the Supreme Court said today that the Arundhatiyar Internal Reservation Act, 2009 enacted by the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, taking into account the different levels of oppression prevailing among Scheduled Castes and making internal reservations does not violate the powers given to the President under Article 341 of the Constitution, and if it is done with sufficient data for internal reservations, it is valid. Q. That it has been decided. Balakrishnan has said that through this the State Governments making internal allocations is an interference with the power of the President. The decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Chinnaiah (A) v. Andhra Pradesh has been reversed.
The judges have rejected the arguments of the opposite side such as the granting of internal reservation creates division among the Scheduled Castes and causes discrimination. Judges have ruled that when there are different conditions in a society, different approaches can be taken to preserve balance. With this verdict, the long-standing demand of the people of Arundhatia has been confirmed. Q. It is also history that after the Marxist-Communist Party led the struggle on the political platform, there was a situation in which it suffered. Balakrishnan mentioned.
Comrade N. urged the then Chief Minister Dr. Kalainar to insist on the request for reservation of seats for the Arunthathiyars. Leaders of the Marxist Communist Party under the leadership of Varadarajan personally met and submitted a petition and insisted that K. Balakrishnan has pointed out. He has also said that it is not acceptable that only one judge has given a different judgment in this judgment given on majority basis regarding internal reservation.
The Marxist Communist Party expressed its appreciation and congratulations to the Tamil Nadu government, all the lawyers, organizations and social activists who have conducted the long legal battle from the Madurai High Court branch to the Supreme Court. Balakrishnan said
