The classification is a route to state recognition, not a statement about its teaching. Its cosmological framework does not derive from any Hindu tradition.

State administrative position
Official position
The 1969 classification provides a legal basis for civil registration and for holding ceremonies, and in practice protects their performance.
T3 SRC-0302
The entry describes the classification as an administrative decision and does not use it as a description of doctrine.
Every position carries its own source, and the tier of that source is visible. A position resting only on a tertiary source is still recorded — as circulating usage, not as an equivalent account.
