Hello aspirant,
YES, a pwd person will be able to get EWS category reservation.
Persons who are not covered under the scheme of reservation for SCs, STs and OBCs and whose family has gross annual income below Rs 8 (Rupees eight lakh only)
are to be identified as EWSs for benefit of reservation. Income shall also include income from all sources i.e. salary, agriculture, business, profession, etc.
Furthermore, you have to fulfill the below mentioned conditions to get the EWS Category reservation as a GENERAL Category person :
Your annual family income should be below 8 lakh rupees. An annual income of above 8 lakh cannot be considered as economically weak and hence cannot fall under the economically weaker section (EWS). If your family owns any agricultural land, it should be less than 5 acres.
I hope that this will help.
