Explanation

Article 341 of the Constitution defines Scheduled Castes and outlines the procedure for their specification. The President is empowered to specify Scheduled Castes after consultation with the Governor, and Parliament can make amendments to this list through law. This is distinct from Article 342 which deals with Scheduled Tribes. The numbering follows the sequence in the constitutional provisions dealing with special protections for marginalized communities.
