Hello Bhaavika,

If you have an SC category certificate issued by Haryana but completed your schooling in Delhi, here is what you need to know for JAC counselling:

• The SC certificate must be valid and issued by the state where you are claiming reservation. Since your certificate is from Haryana, it is valid only for Haryana state quota.

• For JAC counselling (which is for admission in Jharkhand state), your SC certificate from Haryana may not be accepted for reservation benefits unless you have established domicile or eligibility in Jharkhand.

• Your schooling in Delhi does not automatically make you eligible for SC reservation in Jharkhand.

• If you do not have Jharkhand domicile or SC certificate issued by Jharkhand, you may not be able to claim SC reservation under Jharkhand home quota.

• Your SC certificate from Haryana will not get cancelled, but it might not be considered valid for JAC counselling reservation benefits.

• You can still apply under the general category if you do not meet domicile or certificate requirements for SC reservation in Jharkhand.

• For urgent clarity, contact the JAC counselling authorities directly and verify domicile and SC certificate eligibility rules to avoid any last-minute issues.

In summary, your Haryana SC certificate remains valid for Haryana but may not help you get SC reservation under Jharkhand’s home quota in JAC counselling without proper domicile.
