Article 338 of the Indian Constitution mandates the National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) to submit an annual report to the President detailing the status of Constitutional safeguards for Scheduled Castes. This report ensures accountability and monitors the implementation of protections and welfare measures for Scheduled Castes. The 2023-24 report was recently submitted to President Droupadi Murmu, as required by this constitutional provision. The NCSC plays a crucial role in safeguarding the rights and interests of Scheduled Castes, and Article 338 reinforces its authority and responsibilities.
