Hello,
Yes, you can use your Central EWS certificate for CLAT PG, but here are some important points to consider:
Eligibility for EWS : The Central EWS (Economically Weaker Section) certificate is intended for candidates who belong to the General category but are economically disadvantaged. If you have a valid EWS certificate, you are eligible to apply under this category.
SCBC Category Issue : If you did not fill the SCBC (Socially and Economically Backward Class) category in your CLAT PG application, you cannot claim this category for reservation, as it is a different category compared to EWS.
Clarification with CLAT Office : Since you did not select the SCBC category in your application, it's crucial to clarify with the CLAT office if your EWS certificate can be used for benefits under the General category, or if any changes are possible in your application.
Documentation : Ensure that your EWS certificate is valid and meets the criteria laid out by CLAT for eligibility.
Hope it helps !
