Frequently Asked Questions

What document proves my caste in Rajasthan?

The strongest proof is your father's school leaving certificate showing his caste, or any old government document (voter ID, service record) with caste mentioned. A Caste Sarpanch/Gazetted Certificate from your village is also accepted.

Rajasthan caste certificate for scholarship — which income limit?

Caste certificate itself has no income limit. But for OBC/MBC scholarships, you also need a Non-Creamy Layer income certificate (income < ₹8 lakh/year). For SC/ST scholarships, no income limit applies.
