Question No. 7 Mrs. C.M. Chopra scathingly attacks the judgment of the Tribunal inter alia contending that the protection guaran teed to the candidates belonging to Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes under the Constitution more particularly under Article 335 of the Constitution of India cannot be taken away by an arbitrary executive action by introducing the second proviso, thereby reducing the number of permissi ble attempts for appearing in the CSE hitherto enjoyed by such candidates; that the right statutorily and constitu tionally vested on the SC/ST candidates, permitting them to make unlimited attempts, of course, subject to the upper age limit cannot be easily whittled down and that the second proviso is an independent proviso, having no relation to the first proviso and apriori it cannot control and prevail upon the first proviso which declares "that this restriction on the number of attempts will not apply in the case of Sched uled Castes and Scheduled Tribes who are otherwise eligible." According to her, the reservation policy guaran teed to the SC/ST candidates cannot be obliterated by an unreasonable and arbitrary executive action.
