The petitioner challenges a Scrutiny Committee order rejecting her Scheduled Tribe caste certificate.

The Committee must file its reply by June 12, 2026, petitioner's rejoinder by June 17, 2026, with hearing on June 22, 2026. The employer is restrained from taking coercive action pending resolution.
