can a General PWD person apply for EWS certificate ?
Hello Student ,
EWS means Economically Weaker section which is a subcategory of general category whose annual income is less than eight lakhs and they don't belong to reserved category (SC/ST/OBC). They do have separate reservations.
PwD means Person with Disabilities.A person with more that 40% of disabilities come under this category. They do have 3% reservations under SC, ST, OBC, general category. To claim their reservation they need to provide a disability certificate.
If you are eligible to both the above criteria you can definitely get the certificate.
All the best
