Case Summary: U.P. Public Service Commission v. Sanjay Kumar Singh The Supreme Court reversed the High Court's decision, holding that a person belonging to a Scheduled Tribe in one state cannot claim reservation benefits in another state where that tribe is not notified. Although Singh was a certified Naga tribal from Nagaland, the Naga tribe is not recognized as a Scheduled Tribe in U.P., so he cannot claim ST reservation there. However, the Court directed U.P. to consider his candidature in the general category and offer appointment if he scored higher marks than selected general category candidates.
