Below is the approximate distribution of religion with respect to SC/ST and OBC. SC/ST provisions were introduced by Ambedkar as these class of people were harassed and abused in the past. And now we see that Muslims and Christians (majorly) are included in SC/ST as well as OBC categories.
The term "Dalit" was a word applicable for Hindu SC/STs who suffered from harassment and untouchability in the past. Muslims ruled India for 700+ years and destroyed 1000s of temples in country and plundered enormous amount of wealth (Mohammad Gahzni, Bahamani kingdom, etc). But today Muslims are also being moved to SC/STs!
Now are they reaping benefits from OBC, SC/ST and Minority benefits?
Distrubution:
Below are few sample data showing Muslims and Christians being added OBC:
SC/ST or Dalit branded Muslim/Christian statistics from NCBC(old data 2005):
