In tamilnadu No anti.bail for this act.. You have to file anti bail application before high court.. High court will direct you to surrender before the concern district judge. The same day consider the bail also.. Its mean you have to surrender then very same day your bail will be considered.. This is the procedure in s.c, s.t act.

I don't think uttering as sc woman is listed as a crime in the law of untouchability, as SC is an officially given term by the Government of India. You may refer the provisions of the Scheduled Castes and Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 about specific words included as offences in the Act.

However, if your tone was insulting your act can come within the purview of Section 3(1)(x) of the Act, which states as follows:

3. Punishments for offences of atrocities

1) Whoever, not being a member of a Scheduled Caste or a Scheduled Tribe,-

(x)intentionally insults or intimidates with intent to humiliate a member of a
Scheduled Caste or a Scheduled Tribe in any place within public view.

You may however try to get anticipatory bail before some harm is done.

our constitution guarantees that innocent should not be punished but they bring out laws which harass the innocent. The best example is SC/ST atrocities act 1987.
