What is the new criterias for EWS certificate? Does it include any owned land property limit? Will josaa give relaxation on land property criteria?
Hi aspirant,
Jossa gives benifits to candidates if they hold EWS certificates but giving relaxation is not in their hand. Following below are the criteria that are needed to be fulfilled in order to get EWS certificate:
- The applicant must belong to general category.
- The family income must be equal to or less than 8 lacs per annum.
- The agricultural land must not be more than 5 acres.
- The residential home should be within 1000 sq ft which is 100 sq yards for some municipalities.
Hope it helps!
