Raju Ramsing Vasave vs Mahesh Deorao Bhivapurkar & Ors on 29 August, 2008

19. Even in the case of Raju Ramsing Vasave (supra), relied on by the petitioner, the Apex Court has made it clear that if it is found that in granting a certificate in favour of member of a family vital evidence had been ignored, it would be open to the Committee to arrive at a different finding. Thus, because the caste certificate of Dhiraj Gorakh Suryawanshi is validated by the Scrutiny Committee, Nashik, the Scrutiny Committee at Nandurbar is not bound to validate the caste certificate issued in favour of the petitioner.

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

In the case of Anand Vs. Committee for Scrutiny and Verification of Tribe Claims and others (supra), the Apex Court laid down certain broad parameters, which ::: Uploaded on - 27/02/2019 ::: Downloaded on - 22/03/2019 05:15:19 ::: 15 wp4965-2014 are to be kept in view while dealing with the caste claim. While dealing with documentary evidence, greater reliance may be placed on pre-Independence documents. In the event of a doubt on the credibility of a document, its veracity has to be tested on the basis of oral evidence, for which an opportunity has to be afforded to the applicant. While applying the affinity test, which focuses on the ethnological connections with the Scheduled Tribe, a cautious approach has to be adopted. The affinity test may be used to corroborate the documentary evidence and should not be the sole criteria to reject the claim. In this case, the Apex Court has also made it clear that the burden of proving the caste claim is upon the applicant and he has to produce all the requisite documents in support of his claim. The Scrutiny Committee can only scrutinize the documents and material produced by the applicant. In case the material produced by the applicant does not prove his claim, the Scrutiny Committee cannot gather the evidence on its own to prove or disprove his caste.
