Hi Bindu, so as per the media research, it's upto the state government within every state that decides the categorisation of different castes and subcasts. So, the Veerashaivas which belong to the ancient times Shaivas, in Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Goa and even Karnataka and Telangana according to some researches, say that these states come under the Central OBC list. But again, these lists are revised every year or more within and by the state governments.
So for now, as per my set of information collected, you could apply for a job within OBC quota as well without hesitation.
Hope this helps.
Thanks. All the best for your future endeavours.
