Dear aspirant !!

Hope you are doing great ! The category 2A is meant for occupational castes like Kumbara, Ediga and Kuruba . Already there are 102 occupational sub-castes under this category, the Government is unnecessarily creating problem by including sub-castes of Veerashiva community though they are not based on any occupation, Federation members said.

On the other hand ,According to the Indian Constitution 3A comes under Other Backward Castes (OBC) category because there is no seperate category of OBCs and backward classe. Under 3A especially Vokkaligas gets reservation in employment and education sector.

So now you can think which is higher or lower , i will not compare the castes .

Hope you find it helpful !!

Thanking you
