Hi
Unfortunately that will not be possible. During the time of registration you registered as general category candidate and the correction window is also closed. Now there is no way to change your category and you will have to take all the steps as general category candidate as during the JOSSA counseling process also they will not provide you any way to change the category and your CLR rank will be considered for admission in different colleges and general category.
Use your college predictor tool to find out which colleges you may get:

If you forget to mention your EWS category in the application form then with the same category you have to attend counselling. No alterations can done after the filling the application form.
