ADIVASIS FOR SOCIAL AND HUMAN RIGHTS ACTION VS UNION OF INDIA
The Supreme Court held that the Central and the State laws which are applicable to the State of Orissa will continue to apply to Scheduled Areas in the State of Orissa unless the Governor, under Clause 5(1) of the Fifth Schedule, declares that a particular law is not applicable to the Scheduled Area. The Supreme Court held that non-tribals have the right to settle down in a Scheduled Area based on Article 19(1)(e) of the Constitution of India which grants every citizen a right to settle in any part of the territory of India. Further, any person including non-tribals have a right to vote even in Scheduled Areas. There is no provision that all the constituencies for Lok Sabha and State Legislature elections in Scheduled Areas are reserved only for Scheduled Tribes candidates. The judgment of the Court was authored by Justice Oka.
