what is the difference between ebc sebc EWS category?
Hello aspirant,
The terms Economically Weaker Section (EWS) and Economically Backward Class (EBC) are not meant to be confused with each other in India. The definition of EWS has been defined by the Government of India whereas the definition of EBC and Most Economically Backward Class (MEBC) vary in different states as well as institutions.
People belonging to Economically Weaker Section now get a 10% reservation in education and government jobs of India similarly like OBC, SC, ST. There was huge unrest among people who came out in many ways including the form of anti-reservation agitations.
Thankyou
