I belong to general caste, and I belong to EWS category. One person from the department of the State Education Board of Assam told me that in NTSE, there is reservation only for OBC category EWS students (I'm from Assam). Can i get any kind of reservation in NTSE for being a general caste EWS ?

Hello student,
Hope you are in best of your health , so the answer to your question as follows:-
Reservation
- Candidates belonging to the Schedule Caste group have been awarded 15% reservation based on national standards.
- Students from Scheduled Tribes are entitled to 7.5 percent of the total seats available.
- A provision of 4% reserve has been made for physically challenged applicants or those with Benchmark Disabilities.
- According to the new NCERT guidelines, applicants belonging to the OBC category would be allowed a 27% quota.
- It is worth noting that the same reservation provisions will apply to the NCERT Scholarship Scheme.
So , for general EWS category as per now there is no reservations in NTSE.
Hope this helps!
