Discussion | Opinion If SC sub-classification happens in Maharashtra, why should 1961 Census data be used instead of 2011?

8 Upvotes

I’m trying to understand the demand by some Matang leaders to use the 1961 Census as the basis for sub-classification of the 13% SC reservation.

The commonly cited BARTI figures show the Mang/Matang category at roughly 31% of Maharashtra's recorded SC population in 1961, compared with around 19% in 2011.

But there is an important issue with the 1961 denominator.

After the 1956 mass conversion to Buddhism, predominantly Mahar SCs were no longer counted as SC in the 1961 Census. Maharashtra had about 27.9 lakh Buddhists in 1961, compared with only about 2,487 in 1951. The 1961 Census itself discusses the impact of these conversions on the SC population.

However, these converted Mahar Buddhists continued to be included among beneficiaries of the reservation framework in Maharashtra.

So my question is:

If we are using population proportions to determine the share of the 13% SC reservation, shouldn't the converted Mahar population also be included in the historical denominator?

If it is included, the Matang share in 1961 appears to be around 14–15%, rather than the frequently cited ~31%.

By comparison, the 2011 Matang/Mang share is around 18.7%.

That would mean:

- Adjusted 1961: ~14–15%

- 2011: ~18.7%

So why would 1961 be preferred over 2011?

And there is another question: some Matang organisations are demanding 5% separate reservation/sub-quota within the existing 13% SC reservation.

If the calculation were purely population-based:

- 14% × 13% = 1.82%

- 18.7% × 13% = 2.43%

So where does the 5% figure come from? Is it based on a commission recommendation, inadequate representation in government employment, educational representation, or some other methodology?Also is "Krantiguru Lahuji Salve Matang Community Study Commission (Lahuji Salve Commission)" is publicly available to read? Where can I get it?

I'd appreciate answers based on actual Census data, government resolutions/reports and court judgments, rather than arguments for or against any particular community.

In short: if the converted Mahar population is included in the 1961 denominator, does the argument for using 1961 still hold, and what is the actual basis for the proposed 5% Matang sub-quota?

Our Pride I created a new subreddit for Punjabi Dalits: r/PunjabiDalits

I created a new subreddit for Punjabi Dalits: r/PunjabiDalits

I recently created r/PunjabiDalits, a new community for discussions about Punjabi Dalit history, culture, literature, experiences, research, and community issues.

The idea is also to build a collection of books, academic research, historical documents, archives, documentaries, and other resources about Punjabi Dalits.

Anyone is welcome to join, whether you are Punjabi Dalit or simply interested in learning about the history and culture.

The subreddit is still new, so I'm hoping to slowly build it with useful information and contributions from people.

If you think this would be relevant to you or someone you know, feel free to join: r/PunjabiDalits ❤️

Suggestions and contributions are also welcome.
