Minorities in India Explained: Constitution, Law & the Supreme Court Debate | MIT Series

Who is a "minority" under the Indian Constitution — and who gets to decide? In this episode of the MIT Series, we break down Articles 29 & 30, the National Commission for Minorities Act 1992, the six nationally notified minority communities, the landmark TMA Pai Foundation case (2002), and the 2021 Supreme Court petition challenging India's national minority list. We also look at where Hindus are numerically a minority across Indian states and UTs, based on 2011 Census data — and why this question is still pending before the Supreme Court. 📌 Topics covered: Constitutional basis of minority rights (Art. 29 & 30) NCM Act, 1992 and notified communities TMA Pai Foundation v.
