Hello,

you can get ews status if the following conditions are fulfilled apart from income less thqn 8lakhs :


you should be from general category.


Your family should not own or possess agricultural land of size 5 acres or above.


, your family should not own or possess a residential flat of area 1000 sq.feet or more.



yOur family should not own or possess a residential plot of area 100 sq.yards or more in notified municipalities.


Your family should not own or possess a residential plot of area 200 sq.yards or more in areas other than in notified municipalities.


The term “Family” for this purpose will include the person who seeks the benefit of reservation, his/her parents and siblings below the age of 18 years as also his/her spouse and children below the age of 18 years.

Dear candidate as per the government norms if you belong to unprivileged sections of the society then you cannot apply for EWS because the persons who are eligible for EWS must belong to General category caste that is belonging to upper castes so this is the main mandatory field for the application of EWS.

Thank You!
