Neglect During a Key Meeting
The meeting, chaired by the Chairman of the SC Categorization Commission, Rajeev Ranjan Mishra, was convened to hear petitions from SC groups supporting or opposing the categorization.

The SC groups, who attended the meeting with high hopes, expressed their disappointment over the lack of attention from officials. This behavior, they claim, undermines the seriousness of issues affecting marginalized communities.
