The Supreme Court on Monday upheld the government's 2018 amendment to the SC / ST Act, giving relief to the central government. The Supreme Court said that preliminary inquiry is not necessary if a complaint is made under the Atrocities Act. Permission from senior police officers or the appointing authority is not necessary before filing an FIR. No provision for anticipatory bail in cases of SC / ST Act. Courts can quash the FIR in exceptional circumstances. The Supreme Court dismissed the petitions challenging the validity of the SC / ST Amendment Act, 2018.

According to the SC / ST Amendment Act, now an FIR will be registered immediately after a complaint is received and an arrest will be made.


Let us tell you that on 20 March 2018, in view of the misuse of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, the Supreme Court automatically stayed the FIR and arrests on the complaints received under this Act.
