MUKESH KUMAR . vs DELHI SUBORDINATE SER.SELECN BD .

The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of Articles 16(4), 341, and 342 of the Constitution regarding the entitlement of Scheduled Caste candidates to benefits in employment across different states. The Court noted that the decision in S. Pushpa was perceived as contrary to earlier Constitution Bench judgments and emphasized that a two-judge bench cannot declare a three-judge bench decision as per incuriam. The matter was referred to a larger bench for resolution of the interplay between the mentioned Articles, but the appeal was disposed of based on the High Court's findings, which were upheld.
