Dear Somil, if you belong to Open Category and your family income from all sources is less than 8 lakhs per annum, you are eligible for EWS Reservation. Either a Hindu or Muslim or a Christian who has quoted himself/herself to be under Open Category and hasn't been claiming any benefits of OBC,SC,ST reservations is eligible for EWS reservation. So even if your Certificates mention that you belong to Hinduism, if you fulfil EWS criteria, you can avail this reservation. That shouldn't be a problem. EWS reservation is for Economically Backward sections of General Category belonging to any faith.

You will have to talk to the certificate generating authorities, Somil. Do you have your 10th certificate or 12th certificate that shows your Category as OC? Actually Open Category candidates will not have Caste certificate because they do not have any reservations to avail. Check with them if you get an affidavit done stating that you belong to Open Category and dont want to avail any OBC benefits in the future. This might help. If you have a Ration Card, please check if there are any Category details mentioned on it.
