List of Other Backward Caste Category

The Castes/Communities for the Central List of Other Backward


Classes (OBC List)
Other Backward Class (OBC) is a collective term used by the Government of India to classify
castes which are educationally and socially disadvantaged. The OBCs were found to
comprise 52% of the country's population by the Mandal Commission report of 1980, a
figure which had shrunk to 41% by 2006 when the National Sample Survey Organization
took place. In the Indian Constitution, OBCs are described as "socially and educationally
backward classes. The list of Central List of OBCs (OBCs) maintained by the Indian Ministry
of Social Justice and Empowerment is dynamic, with castes and communities being added or
removed depending on social, educational and economic factors.
