i am from sc category and caste is buddhist am i belong to minority candidature type
Hey aspirant,
SC/ST/OBC are different castes whereas Buddhism is a religion.
Both are unrelated. So, you can be a candidate of SC Category and avail the benefits of reservation.
There are many SC candidates who have gone under religion change from Hinduism to Buddhism but that has nothing to do with their category.
As long as you have a valid caste certificate, you belong to SC category.
Hope this helps,
All the best!
