Status of Children born to the Inter-caste married couple one of whom belongs to Scheduled Caste / Scheduled Tribe.
The crucial test to determine the caste of a child born out of wedlock in which one of the spouses belongs to SC/ST community as a member of their community is, to determine whether the child has been brought up and accepted as SC/ST as member of their SC/ST community. Even if a mother of the child is a SC/ST community member, it is possible that the community of his father accepts the child and brought up in the surroundings of his father’s relations. In that case such child cannot be treated as a member of SC/ST community. Similarly when the mother belongs to higher caste and the father belongs to lower caste irrespective of the fact whether the mother or father is a member of such community then he has to be treated as a member of SC/ST community and would be entitled to receive benefits as such.

Since Hindu including Sikh & Buddhist, society (to whom SC status applies) is patrarchial it is artificial to assume that the caste will be determined on the basis of mother’s caste. Woman is permitted to change surname after marriage (without affidavit etc) and not the man. This is done so as to recognise customary law. Yes in few parts of cournty society is matriachial and some of thm are Hindus as well. In case of such communities the facts may be different.
