Bare Act

The Chhattisgarh SC, ST and OBC (Regulation of Social Status Certification) Act, 2013

This Act establishes the legal framework for issuing valid social status certificates to residents of Chhattisgarh belonging to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes. By regulating who is officially recognized in these categories, the law ensures that marginalized communities can correctly access the reservations, financial assistance, and government benefits reserved for them. This measure is essential for social justice, as it prevents the misrepresentation of social background and guarantees that state resources are distributed to those who genuinely belong to these historically disadvantaged groups.
