Minority & ews are different do not mix them

Minority has nothing to do with reservation

Muslims are minority yet they come under obc

Since jain caste category is general they can apply for ews if fulfil eligibility

Ews is for poor section of open category i.e. general category people. Who are previously not covered under any of st sc obc reservation.

So if you apply for ews and get ews certificate it is not going to effect your minority benefits

So make your ews certificate as soon as possible.

hi,

see ews certificate of general category students who dont have any other caste certificate, and also satisfied the eligibility criteria regarding annual income and asset of family, as you have already a minority certificate in your names you can not apply for ews category. for neet exam one person can apply for only one category, you need to choose between general or ews or obc ncl or sc or st  category.

Wrong imformation ews is for all people who are previously not covered under st, sc & obc reservation
It has nothing to do with minority
Minority means all religions except hindu religion & it has nothing to do with reservation
So jain students who fufill crieteria of ews should make ews
