2. Introduction
INDIA
Determination of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes population is mandatory in each decennial Census since The lists of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes are notified in respect of each State and Union Territory separately in pursuance of Articles 341 and 342 of the Constitution.
These lists are State and Area specific and are valid only within the jurisdiction of that State or Union Territory and not outside. In each decennial census since 1951, Scheduled Castes & Scheduled Tribes population have been enumerated.
According to the Constitution (Scheduled Castes) Orders (Amendment) Act, 1990, Scheduled Castes can only belong to Hindu or Sikh or Buddhist religions. There is no religion bar in case of Scheduled Tribes.
