"12. Article 338 of the Constitution of India specifies for Constitution of National Commission of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The Supreme Court in All India Indian Overseas Bank SC and ST employees' welfare association vs. Union of India (Supra) held that "all the procedural powers of civil court given to the National Commission for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribe by Article 338(8) of the Constitution of India are for the limited purpose of investigating any matter under Article 338(5)(a) or inquiring into any complaint, under Article 338(5)(b). The powers of a civil court of granting injunctions, temporary or permanent, do not inhere in the Commission nor can such a power be inferred or derived from a reading of clause (8) of Article 338 of the Constitution. The Commission having not been specifically granted any power to issue interim injunctions, lacks the authority to issue an order of the type found in the letter dated 4.3.1993 directing the Bank to stop the promotion process pending further investigation and final verdict in the matter."
