[amp_mcq option1=”Scheduled Tribes” option2=”Scheduled Castes” option3=”Other Backward Classes” option4=”General Category” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is: a) Scheduled Tribes.<\/p>\n
Meghalaya is a state in northeastern India. It is the second least populous state in India, after Sikkim. The majority of Meghalaya’s population belongs to the Khasi, Jaintia, and Garo tribes. These tribes are considered to be Scheduled Tribes under the Indian Constitution. Scheduled Tribes are indigenous peoples who are considered to be socially and economically backward. They are entitled to certain benefits and reservations in education and employment under the Indian Constitution.<\/p>\n
The Scheduled Castes are another group of people who are considered to be socially and economically backward. They are also entitled to certain benefits and reservations in education and employment under the Indian Constitution. However, the Scheduled Castes are not as numerous as the Scheduled Tribes in Meghalaya.<\/p>\n
The Other Backward Classes (OBCs) are a group of people who are considered to be socially and educationally backward. They are not as numerous as the Scheduled Tribes or the Scheduled Castes in Meghalaya.<\/p>\n
The General Category is a group of people who are not considered to be socially or educationally backward. They are not entitled to any benefits or reservations under the Indian Constitution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
