What is this about?
The High Court allowed a writ petition challenging the refusal to validate Scheduled Tribe certificates. The court held that pending the committee's inquiry into alleged fraud, petitioners are entitled to benefits deriving from valid certificates held by blood relatives, quashing the invalidation order.
What did the court decide?
The impugned judgment and order quashed; the respondent committee directed to issue certificates of validity to petitioners co-terminus with the validities of their blood relatives.
