Special Bonafide Resident Certificate (TSP) | Marital Status Cannot Invalidate Native Residence Claim for Tribal Rights : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court has ruled that denying a woman a Special Bonafide Resident Certificate solely because she moved out of a Tribal Sub-Plan area after marriage violates Article 14 and undermines the very purpose of the certificate, which is tied to ancestral residence, not marital relocation. This sets a critical precedent protecting the land and welfare rights of married women from patriarchal administrative practices in tribal regions.
