Hello Ananya,

Here’s what you need to know regarding GEN-EWS certificates for CUET PG :

1. Central GEN-EWS Requirement: CUET PG and other national-level exams generally require a central GEN-EWS certificate issued as per central government norms.
2. State GEN-EWS: If you have submitted a state GEN-EWS certificate, it may not be accepted unless explicitly mentioned by the conducting authority.
3. Recommendation: Apply for a central GEN-EWS certificate immediately to avoid disqualification.
4. Application Status: Your application may not be rejected outright but could be flagged during document verification.
5. Confirmation: Check CUET PG guidelines or contact NTA directly for clarity.

Hope it helps !

For CUET PG, you need a Central EWS certificate to claim the General-EWS category reservation, not a state-level one; therefore, based on official websites' information, you should get a Central EWS certificate even if you already submitted your application with a state EWS certificate.

• Central Government Policy:

The CUET is a central level exam, and the reservation policy for EWS is based on the guidelines set by the central government, which requires a Central EWS certificate.

• Potential Issue:

While your application might not be outright rejected due to a state EWS certificate, it's best to be cautious and obtain a Central EWS certificate to avoid any potential issues during verification and submit it during form correction.

GOOD LUCK!!!
