The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear on August 7 a petition challenging the August 1 verdict of the Patna High Court which had upheld the validity of the caste survey in Bihar.
The High Court had rejected a batch of petitions challenging the survey, which was ordered last year and began earlier this year.
According to the cause list uploaded on the apex court website, a plea filed by NGO 'Ek Soch Ek Paryas' challenging the High Court verdict is listed for hearing on August 7 before a bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and S.V.N. Bhatti.
