Detailed Solution

SCs are also known as 'Dalits.'
Before 1935, the term 'Dalit' was used to translate the British Raj census of depressed classes (Scheduled Castes). The term 'Dalit' refers to India's poorest social and economic societies. In Sanskrit and Hindi, it also means broken/scattered. They were people who were considered "exiled" by the Hindu social order and were subject to discrimination. In 2011, scheduled castes comprised 16.6% of the population, while organised castes made up 8.6%.
