How has the role of the Governor been changed concerning the specification of Scheduled Castes in a State or Union territory?
The role of the Governor has been changed concerning the specification of Scheduled Castes in a State or Union territory through the Constitution (Seventh Amendment) Act, 1956. Previously, the President could make the specification after consultation with the Governor or Rajpramukh of a State. However, after this amendment, the Governor's role has been omitted, and the President can now specify Scheduled Castes in relation to any State or Union territory without consulting the Governor.
