Agenda Item No. 5.3.3: Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment’s reference to Amendment of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 (Amended Act 2015).

Decision Taken: The Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment has requested to offer the views of the Commission on the Amendment in Section 9 of the Scheduled Castes & Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of atrocities) Act, 1989 by 31.01.2018.

 Section 9 of the POA Act relates to conferment of powers of arrest, investigation and prosecution, on any officer exercisable by a police officer under the Code, in regard to cases under the POA Act, by the State Government by notification in the Official Gazette; Rule 7(1) of the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) (POA) Rules, 1995, made by the

3 Work done and success stories 2018-19 and 2019-20

Central Government, in exercise of powers conferred by sub-section (1) of Section 23 of POA Act, specifies that an offence committed under the Act shall be investigated by a police officer not below the rank of a Deputy Superintendent of Police.

 In regard to validity of Rule 7 of the POA Rules, the crux of the judgment dated 23.3.2017 of the Supreme Court of India in SLP(C) No. 27524-27 of 2011, with Civil Appeal No. 4401 of 2017, is as under:-

. In regard to validity of Rule 7 of the POA Rules, keeping in view of the serious and harsh consequences emerging from any violation of the provisions of the POA Act, the Central Government was fully competent and justified, in requiring that the investigative process be conducted by an officer not below the rank of a Deputy Superintendent of Police. The Central Government had exercised its jurisdiction within the framework of the authority vested in it. Therefore, the validity of Rule 7 of the POA Rules is affirmed. (As stated in Para 12 of the judgment).

. As against the national character of the Rule making power vested with the Central Government under Section 23 of the POA Act, the delegated power contemplated under Section 9 of the POA Act, is State specific. The power exercised by a State, keeps in mind the circumstances prevailing in the concerned State. The legitimacy and validity of the exercise of the instant delegated power vested in a State Government, has therefore, to be determined, with reference to the peculiar facts and circumstances prevailing in an individual State. In case the State Government found it necessary and expedient, for an effective implementation of the provisions of the POA Act, it had the right and the responsibility, to vest the power of arrest, investigation and prosecution, in additional personnel. (As stated in Para 18 of the judgment)

. As regards, whether the State Government could in its discretion, in furtherance of the power vested with it under Section 9 of the POA Act, relax the provision made by Rule 7 of the POA Rules; each individual State Government in exercise of the power vested under Section 9 of the POA Act, had the authority to extend to any officer of the State Government, powers of arrest, investigation and prosecution. The provision made under a Rule of the POA Rules can not negate a right extended through the parent Legislation (POA Act). Thus, the power conferred on the State Government under section 9(1) (b) of

4 Work done and success stories 2018-19 and 2019-20

the POA Act cannot be neutralized by any rule of the POA Rules framed under section 23 of the POA Act. By way of a notification published in the Official Gazette under section 9(1) (b) of the POA Act, the State Government was competent to relax Rule 7 of the POA Rules. (As stated in Para 17, 18 of the judgment)

 The aforesaid judgment seemingly leads to an inference that existing provisions of Section 9 of the POA Act and Rule 7(1) of the POA Rules are not in harmony and rather incompatible, notwithstanding the emphasis stated in para 3 (i) above. It is, thus, considered essential that to establish in principle amongst all concerned State Governments/Union Territory Administrations, a uniform applicability of investigation of the POA Act related cases by an officer not below the rank of Deputy Superintendent, existing stipulation of Section 9 of the POA Act needs to be amended to distinctly specify therein that an offence committed under the POA Act shall be instigated by a police officer not below the rank of a Deputy Superintendent of Police (as presently provided under Rules 7(1) of the POA Rules) and to do away with the existing provisions wherein states by notification in their Official Gazettes can confer it to any officer holding the ranks below the rank of the Deputy Superintendent of Police.

Existing provisions of Section 9 of the Scheduled Castes & Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of atrocities) Act, 1989:-

Section 9: (1) Notwithstanding anything contained in the code or in any other provision of this Act, the State Government may, if it considers it necessary or expedient so to do- (a) for the prevention of and for coping with any offence under this Act, or

(b) for any case or class or group of cases under this Act, in any district or part thereof, confer, by notification in the Official 50 Gazette, on any officer of the State Government, the powers exercisable by a police officer under the Code in such district or part thereof or, as the case may be, for such case or class or group of cases, and in particular, the powers of arrest, investigation and prosecution of persons before any Special Court.

(2) All officers of police and all other officers of Government shall assist the officer referred to in sub-section (1) in the execution of the provisions of this Act or any rule, scheme or order made there under.

5 Work done and success stories 2018-19 and 2019-20

(3) The provisions of the Code shall, so far as may be, apply to the exercise of the powers by an officer under sub-section (1)

Proposed amendment in Section 9 of the Scheduled Castes & Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of atrocities) Act, 1989 are as under:-

● The State Government/Union Territory Administration shall notify in the official Gazette that notwithstanding anything contained in the Code of Criminal Procedure or in any other provision of this Act, an offence committed under this Act shall be investigated by a police officer not below the rank of a Deputy Superintendent of Police/Assistant Commissioner of Police. The investigating officer in the rank of the Deputy Superintendent of Police/Assistant Commissioner of Police, shall be appointed by the State Government/Union Territory Administration/Director General of Police/Commissioner of Police/Additional Director General of Police/Special Commissioner of Police/Inspector General of Police/Additional Commissioner of Police/Deputy Inspector General of Police/Senior Superintendent of Police/Deputy Commissioner of Police, after taking into account his/her past experience, sense of ability and justice to perceive the implications of the case and investigated it along with right lines within the shortest possible time.

● All officers of police and all other officers of Government shall assist the Investigating Officer referred to in sub-section (1) in the execution of the provisions of this Act or any rule, scheme or order made there under.

In this regard, clarification was sought from the M/o Social Justice & Empowerment whether Section 9 (1), 9(1)(a) and 9(3) of the existing Act will remain or are they being replace by Section 9(1) and 9(2) only.

The M/o Social Justice & Empowerment has clarified that the draft formulation of the Section 9 of the POA Act is towards substituting the entire existing Section 9 of the POA Act.

The Commission approved to support the amendment to Section 9 of the SC/ST (POA) Act, 1989.

In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) of section 23 of the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 (33 of 1989), the Central Government had made the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) {POA} Rules, 1995, which were last amended by the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Amendment Rules, 2016 notified in the Gazette of India, Extraordinary, on 14.04.2016.

1.10.10 For Education Loans :

The banks can evolve a short term loans ( at lower interest rates) as a bridge loans to SC

students studying in Private Colleges/ Universities to tide over the gap between payment of

fees to colleges and the fee reimbursement of the same by the State Governments.

1.11 Review of PSUs / departments :

During the review of PSUs and Departments the main points of concern noted by the Commission are as follows : 1.11.1 Representation of SCs in Group A : Representation of Scheduled Castes in the higher management levels of Group A across all PSUs and was well below the norm. The PSUs were advised to take steps to ensure that SCs find adequate representation in the higher management levels. 1.11.2 Representation of SCs in contractual / outsourced personnel : The representation of SCs in the persons working on contract basis / outsourced / daily wage basis was not known to the management in most PSUs / Departments. The Commission drew the attention of the CMDs of all PSUs / GMs of the Railways to the fact that the MHA and DoPT orders1 regarding contractual personnel reservation rules need to be followed . In case

1 MHA OM No. 27/4/67(II)-Estt.(SCT) dated 24.09.1968 and DoPT OM No. 36036/3/2018-Estt. (Res.) dated 15.05.2018.

85 Work done and success stories 2018-19 and 2019-20

of the outsourced personnel , the spirit of the DoPT orders should be kept in mind and the agreements with the outsourced personnel contractors should incorporate a clause regarding the same. The CMDs of all PSUs / GMs of the Railways have agreed to take necessary steps for the same and keep a database of SCs engaged as contractual / outsourced personnel. 1.11.3 Procurement from SCs as per MSME guidelines : The Commission observed that the percentage of procurement from SC suppliers / contractors in all PSUs / Departments reviewed was in the range of 0.02 to 0.2 % , or the data was not available with the management. The procurement percentage was negligible when compared to the norms set by the MSME circular of at least 4-5 %.Details of SC vendor development programmes showed lack of serious and concentrated effort made by the PSUs in this aspect. The Commission appreciated the initiative of HPCL in their vendor development efforts, lowering of the first order limits and the hand holding by HPCL to improve the percentage of SC vendors in their organization. The Commission recommended that all PSUs should adopt ( with variations ) the methodology of HPCL so as to improve the percentage of SC vendors in their respective PSUs. The PSUs may also immediately start by ensuring maximum SC vendors / suppliers in the non- technical works like housekeeping , maintenance , horticulture , office supply etc and develop vendors for technical work / equipment supply . The CMDs of all PSUs / GMs of the Railways have agreed to take necessary steps for the same. 1.11.4 False caste certificates: The Commission noted that all PSUs / Department have cases of employees who have been accused of submitting false caste certificates. The enquiries of such cases are pending for long in most cases. The Managements in all organisations stated that reports from the concerned District Magistrates were pending in most cases despite reminders. The Commission recommended that all such cases need to be followed up expeditiously and in case the DMs do not respond within 2 months the PSU should consolidate such matters of each state and take up the matter with the concerned Chief Secretary of the State. Long pending matters where reports have not been received from DMs can also be listed and the Commission informed so that the Commission may take up the issue with the state Governments concerned. 1.11.5 Employee grievances :

86 Work done and success stories 2018-19 and 2019-20

Commission noted that there are a number of SC employee complaints of discrimination pertaining to each PSU , pending in NCSC. Lists of pending cases were handed over to the Management and the CMDs of all PSUs / GMs of the Railways have agreed to take necessary steps for resolving the same within next 2-3 months and reporting the action taken to the NCSC. They also agreed to ensure that regular meetings with SC staff associations are held as per rules. 1.11.6 CSR : Commission noted that most PSUs are doing excellent CSR work . The Commission recommended that the PSUs take up an outcome tracking of all skill development / education related CSR works so that the outcome of such CSR activities in providing gainful employment / improving standard of living etc can be kept in sight and minor modifications, if any needed, can be made in the CSR programmes to render them more effective. The CMDs of all PSUs / GMs of the Railways have agreed to take necessary steps for the same.

2. Activities of the Commission

2.1 Activities as per Mandate

The Commission has a wide charter in terms of functioning relating to the overall policy, planning, coordination, evaluation and review of the regulatory framework and developmental programs relating to the Scheduled Caste community. NCSC draws its strength from the Article 338 of Indian Constitution which is the backbone of its functioning.

In order to fulfil the above obligations and mandate, the Commission conducts review meetings, hearings, spot visits, studies etc. A gist of the activities performed during the year 2018-19 is as below.

2.2 Complaint Investigation and resolution in NCSC

87 Work done and success stories 2018-19 and 2019-20

The Rules of Procedure of the Commission do not prescribe any time limit for investigation and enquiry of grievances / cases/ individual complaints received in the Commission. Also, as per mandate of the Commission, though the Commission has all the power of Civil Courts trying a suit, the disposal of the cases depends on both the nature and gravity of the complaints as well as on the response from the Public Authorities who are entrusted with ensuring that the rights as guaranteed in the Constitution of India regarding Scheduled Castes are safeguarded. Hence the speed and adequacy of response from the Authorities concerned are the defining factors which determine the actual disposal of the grievances / cases/ individual complaints. The grievances / cases received in the Commission (both at headquarters and in its State Offices) are classified into three main categories viz:  Those related to service matters are handled by Service Safeguards Wing,  Those related to economic and social development matters are handled by the Economic and Social Development Wing (ESDW),  The cases related to atrocities, are handled by Atrocities and Protection of Civil Rights Wing (APCR).

The details of grievances / cases handled by the Commission Headquarters and its State Offices are as under:
