CJI B.R. Gavai said the Supreme Court’s judgment on quota sub-categorisation ensures that the most marginalised among Dalits get their fair share in government jobs and admissions to educational institutions, promoting real equality and justice.
At Oxford Union, CJI Gavai described the Constitution as a “quiet revolution empowering the marginalised,” stressing its transformative strength in ensuring justice, equality, and dignity for those historically denied voice, rights, and representation in society.
