NEW DELHI: A change of religion will not automatically open the door to backward class reservation based on a person's former caste identity. The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a Madras High Court ruling that a person converting to Islam cannot claim backward class reservation simply by relying on their social status before conversion.

NEW DELHI: A change of religion will not automatically open the door to backward class reservation based on a person’s former caste identity. The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a Madras High Court ruling that a person converting to Islam cannot claim backward class reservation simply by relying on their social status before conversion.
A bench of Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Shree Chandrashekhar dismissed the Tamil Nadu government’s challenge to the High Court judgment. The ruling also puts a stop to a 2024 government order that allowed people from certain Hindu backward communities and Scheduled Castes to obtain certificates identifying them as Backward Class Muslims after converting to Islam.

新德里:改变宗教信仰并不会自动使一个人凭借其之前的种姓身份获得落后阶层保留名额。最高法院周四维持了马德拉斯高等法院的裁决,即皈依伊斯兰教的人不能仅仅依靠其皈依前的社会地位来申请落后阶层保留名额。
由普拉尚特·库马尔·米什拉法官和什里·钱德拉谢卡尔法官组成的合议庭驳回了泰米尔纳德邦政府对高等法院判决的上诉。该裁决还终止了一项2024年政府令的执行,该命令允许某些印度教落后社区和贱民阶层的人在皈依伊斯兰教后获得证明其为落后阶级穆斯林的证书。
