Advocate D.V.S.S. Somayajulu, appearing for the respondent, said the Supreme Court of India has clarified that individuals who convert from SC/ST communities to Christianity cannot claim benefits or protections under the SC/ST Act. He added that the ruling reaffirms earlier legal positions and a 1950 presidential order, and is expected to have wider implications across the country, though the full judgment is yet to be released. #SupremeCourt #SCSTAct #IndiaJudiciary #DalitRights #ChristianConversion #LegalNews #BreakingNews #IndianLaw #CourtRuling #Constitution Thank you for watching our video!
