ST Reservation Policy

The Scheduled Tribe (ST) Reservation Policy in India provides a proportionate share of seats in education, jobs, and government programs for communities classified as Scheduled Tribes, recognizing their historical disadvantages. This promotes social equality by enabling ST members to access opportunities otherwise limited due to their marginalized status. The reservation percentages vary by region and are intended to ensure their representation and upliftment. It is part of affirmative action aimed at addressing historical injustices and promoting inclusive development for these communities.
