HELLO!

Basically, Jainism caste comes under General category with no reservation privilege in entrance exams.

Jain caste is considered minority caste but with no special privilege. Either they can apply for EWS certificate if their family annual income from all sources is less than equal to 8 lakh pa.

Thanks!

Dear aspirant,

Jainism is one of the many religions in India. Ahimsa (non-violence) is one of their core values. There are four to five million Jains residing in India.

Jains are a religious minority in India. They count for about 0.4% of India's population. They are counted in the general category .

I hope this helps! Best of luck!
