Explanation:

- The Supreme Court has addressed the question of reservation benefits to persons who join a reserved category family by adoption, marriage, conversion, or other voluntary acts.

- In Kumara Madhuri Patel v/s Addl. Commissioner of Tribal Development (Option 2), the Court clearly held that a non-reserved class person transplanted into a reserved category family, by such means, does not become eligible for reservation benefits under Article 15(4) or 16(4).

- Indra Sawhney v. Union of India (Option 1) mainly dealt with reservations in promotion and backwardness criteria but did not lay down the above principle.

- Kasakar v/s Vishwanath Pandu Barde (Option 3) is not related to this specific rule.

- The correct answer is Option 2: Kumara Madhuri Patel v/s Addl. Comman of Tribal Development.
