Yet in a provocative new book, The Caste Con Census, scholar-activist Anand Teltumbde warns that the exercise may harden the deeply discriminatory caste system, when the need is to dismantle it.

He was asked to consider three sets of allegations against Laura Anne Jones, including a complaint that she had made a racist comment and failed to address discriminatory behaviour.

“The pronouns provision constitutes a regulation of discriminatory conduct that incidentally affects speech,” the court ruled.

This view can justify racially discriminatory practices, such as preferential treatment based on skin color, as a corrective.

The Supreme Court has put both policies into effect by setting aside orders from judges who temporarily blocked the changes as discriminatory and unconstitutional.
