एकाच/समान समुदायनावांचे राज्यनिहाय वेगवेगळे कायदेशीर वर्गीकरण
Reservation status is determined by the exact notified community entry, state/UT, applicable Presidential Order or backward-class list, and certificate-validation rules—not by cultural similarity alone.
| State / context | Common relevant names | Broad classification shown in official lists | Important caution |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maharashtra | Banjara and notified synonymous entries as applicable | Vimukta Jati-A / VJNT state framework | Not presently a Scheduled Tribe entry for Maharashtra merely because related names are ST elsewhere. |
| Telangana | Sugali, Lambadi, Banjara | Scheduled Tribe | Eligibility is tied to the Telangana ST list and certificate rules. |
| Andhra Pradesh | Sugali, Lambadi, Banjara | Scheduled Tribe | State-specific Presidential Order entry applies. |
| Odisha | Banjara / Banjari | Scheduled Tribe entry in the notified list | Exact spelling and territorial/legal conditions must be checked from the current order. |
| Karnataka | Lambani, Banjara and related notified names | State classification must be read from current SC/ST/OBC notifications; community names have had distinct legal treatment | Do not infer status from cultural identity or GI craft recognition. |
| Other states / Union Territories | Labana, Banjara, Lamani, Lambani and local variants | May appear as SC, ST, OBC or another state category, or may not appear | Every state list requires separate verification. |
Why classifications differ
SC and ST lists are notified state/UT-wise under Articles 341 and 342. Backward-class and denotified/nomadic frameworks also differ between state and central systems.
Migration rule
A person generally cannot claim another state’s SC/ST benefit in the destination state solely because the same or similar community name is recognised there. Origin-state rules and current law must be checked.
ST inclusion process
State proposal → Registrar General of India examination → National Commission for Scheduled Tribes opinion → Union Cabinet → Parliament amendment → Presidential assent.
