To start this work the permission from the Six State Governments to access records of both the Designated and Exclusive Special Courts was of paramount importance and without which we could not have progressed. We acknowledge all the government employees who have helped us in accessing the court records. In Karnataka especially we thank Director of Public Prosecution without whose help it would have been impossible to get all the required data for our study. We are deeply indebted to the following individuals who worked with us to undertake the required research work in all the six States: Mr.T.Kannan has formed the research design and accordingly coordinated the research work in the 6 States of India. He has also analyzed the data and wrote a chapter on it. Tamil Nadu research was coordinated by Mr. P. Ramesh with whom Mr. Pandi Rajan (Advocate) and Mr.Ganesan(Advocate) worked as Field Investigator Andhra Pradesh research was coordinated by Anveshi – NGO with whom Ms.Snehalatha and Mr.Venkat worked as Field Investigators. Karnataka research was coordinated by Kannan with whom Mrs.Jaya Bharati and Ms.Surekha Jain worked as Field Investigators. In north India, that is Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat was coordinated by Ms.Nupur Sinha and Damini Patel from Center for Social Justice, Gujarat. The analysis of the huge data collected from all the six states was analysed by Ms.Binitha, using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) programme due to which the explanation on the research result could be simplified and could be presented neatly. Finally we acknowledge the efforts of Ms.Roopa and Ms.Sumitra Acharya who worked day and night to give a final shape to the report to present it to the ministry. 8 We are grateful to the all the coordinators and Field Investigators who carried out this study in the various States across the country inspite of lot of problems they faced in accessing the court records. It was for their patience and hardwork we could get hold of some court data without which the report would not have seen the light of the day. We are grateful to Mrs.Sumitha who has translated the cases in Gujarati to English for our understanding. We record our gratitude to our L.L.B Students Rashmi (III year), Geethanjali (III Year), Pooja (III Year), Nayya (III Year), Anubhav (III Year), Vipul (III Year), Suchetha (III Year), Simran and Pranesh of the National Law School of India, University, Bangalore, who despite the pressures of their academic work assisted in innumerable ways in completing this study. Finally, we appreciate the assistance of Sandhya, in tirelessly entering the data, typing up the report and responding to the many demands of the researchers, promptly and efficiently. Dr. S. Japhet. Faculty Coordinator Centre for Study of Casteism, Communalism and Law (CSCCL) National Law School, Bangalore, India 9 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes(Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 was enacted to respond to the increasing atrocities against the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes under the Act, provision has been made for setting up of special courts to ensure speedy disposal of cases.
