ST Status Under Articles 341/342 Is State-Specific & Non-Portable | Gujarat-Origin Candidate Denied Reservation in Rajasthan : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court held that ST status under Articles 341 and 342 is strictly state-specific and non-portable, denying a Gujarat-origin ST candidate reservation for a Nursing Officer post in Rajasthan after marriage. The ruling affirms Constitution Bench precedent that reservation benefits do not migrate across state boundaries, directly impacting inter-state migrant ST candidates.
