Anand vs Committee For S.&V. Of Tribe Claims &Ors on 8 November, 2011

"6. We have heard the learned Counsel for the respective parties and have examined the record with their assistance. It is not the case of the Caste Scrutiny Committee that the documents of February,1929, 7 th August,1941, 1st July,1929, 21st July,1937 and 2nd April,1956 are not genuine or are fabricated. The documents of 1923, 1929, 1941 and 1937 are pre- constitution documents and have more evidentiary value as laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in case of Anand Vs. Committee for Scrutiny and Verification of Tribe Claims and others reported in 2011(5) Mh.L.J. 919. The reason, as given by the Caste Scrutiny Committee in the impugned order for not relying on the above referred documents that though the documents show the caste as "Thakur", none of the documents show the caste as "Thakur" Schedule Tribe is fallacious. The tribe "Thakur" was not recognized as Schedule Tribe in the pre-constitution era inasmuch as the The Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order, 1950 itself came into existence in 1951.
