Creamy layer not implemented in SC/ST quota: Union minister

The Supreme Court judgment has two parts – one issue was about creamy layer, the other issue was about sub-categorisation of the SC. On one of these issues, Supreme Court gave an observation. The observation is not a part of the judgment. When SC-ST MPs, who belong to BJP, felt that the Opposition was misleading people that with this decision creamy layer will now be a part of SC/ST, they gave a memorandum to the Prime Minister on 9th August. After a cabinet decision, the PM said that the creamy layer is not implemented in SC/ST and is not a part of this judgment. The second part is about direction, it is a part of the judgment. Supreme Court said that if the states want they can draw sub-categorisation and it imposed two conditions: 1) states will collect quantifiable data, 2) they can't give 100% reservation to whoever they are giving: Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal
