STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

According to the provisions of articles 341 and 342 of the Constitution, the lists of the

Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes were notified during the year 1950 in respect of

various States and Union territories. These lists were modified from time to time. A number

of requests were received from time to time from the State Governments of Assam,

Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu and Tripura for inclusion of certain tribes or tribal

communities, equivalent names or synonyms of certain tribes or communities, in the lists of

Scheduled Tribes.

2. Accordingly, the lists of the Scheduled Tribes are proposed to be modified in

respect of the States of Assam, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu and Tripura after

consultation with the State Governments concerned, the Registrar General of India and the

National Commission for the Scheduled Tribes.

3. The Constitution (Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes) Orders (Amendment)

Bill, 2016 proposes to—

(i) transfer of "Bhogta" community in respect of the State of Jharkhand from the

list of Scheduled Castes to the list of Scheduled Tribes;

(ii) include certain communities in the lists of Scheduled Tribes relating to the

States of Assam, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu and Tripura.

4. The Bill seeks to achieve the above objects.

PRESIDENT'S RECOMMENDATION UNDER ARTICLE 117 OF

THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA

[Copy of F. No. 12016/91/2015-C&LM-1 dated 29 November, 2016 from Shri Jual

Oram, Minister of Tribal Affairs to the Secretary General, Lok Sabha]

The President, having been informed of the subject matter of the proposed Constitution

(Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes) Orders (Amendment) Bill, 2016 recommends to the

House the consideration of the Bill under article 117 (3) of the Constitution of India.

FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM

Clause 3 of the Bill seeks to include certain communities as well as addition of

synonyms of communities in the existing lists of Scheduled Tribes. This will entail

additional expenditure on account of benefits to be provided to the persons belonging

to such communities, under the continuing schemes meant for the welfare of the

Scheduled Tribes.

2. It is not possible to estimate the likely additional expenditure to be incurred on

this account at this stage. However, the expenditure, if any, shall be accommodated

within Annual Plan and Non-Plan outlay of the Ministry of Tribal Affairs.
