I m a government employee but my family income is less then 8 lakh per annum. Can i be eligible for ews quota for the other government jobs.
Hi Shubhangi,
Economically Weaker Section (EWS) in India is a subcategory of people belonging to the Economy Based Un-Reserved Category having an annual family income less than INR 8 lakhs and who do not belong to any category such as SC/ST/OBC.
Also, to get reserved under EWS category there are other elements as well (like you should not have any agricultural land of 5 acres and above, your residential flat should not be of 1000 sq ft, etc.)
If you fulfil all these criteria, then you're definitely eligible for EWS quota.
Hope this helps.
