Cast Certificate

Caste certificate is a documentary proof which certifies that an individual belongs to a particular caste. Caste certificate is an essential and useful document through which the citizens of Maharashtra state can avail the various kinds of facilities.

Caste certificate is a proof of being a caste special, especially in such a case when there is a caste for backward castes as specified in the Indian Constitution. The Government realized that backward castes need special incentives and opportunities to progress at the same pace as the rest of the citizens. As a result, as a part of the Indian system of defensive discrimination, the citizens of this category are given some benefit, as reservation for seats in legislative and government services, some or all the excise duty exemption for admission in schools and colleges Quota in educational institutions, exemption of upper age limit for applying in some jobs etc. To be able to achieve these benefits, a backward caste person must have valid caste certificate.

There is one more misconception in this regard, please note that caste certificate and caste validity are NOT same. Yes, Caste Certificate is a document which states your caste, while Cast Validity certificate validates your caste certificate. Basically it is a proof that your caste certificate is not dubious or inaccurate.
