Even your children would be entitled only to father;s category only.

In a recent decision rendered by Supreme Court on 19.1.2018 in CA No. 487/2018, titled Sunita Singh Vs. State of Uttar Pradesh and others, it was held that "the caste is determined by birth and the caste cannot be changed by marriage with a person of scheduled caste".
The fact of the case is that Appellant Sunita was born in “Agarwal” family. She married Dr. Veer Singh, who happens to belong to “Jatav” Community (said to be one of the Scheduled Castes). On the basis of marriage she obtained SC Certificate and obtained job. Her SC Status was challenged. It was held that since she was born in Agarwal family, just because she married a person of SC Caste, her caste will not get changed.
On the basis of the said decision, it can be said that in your case, even after marrying you, your wife who belongs to ST Community will continue to be regarded as ST community.

Your wife is fully entitled to retain cast status. Cast status is acquired by birth in a community and cannot be lost/acquired by marriage.
I do agree that your children will not be entitled to ST status.

If you are not satisfied with FREE advise of experts on this platform, consult a local prudent lawyer.
However, it is absurd and stupidity to repeat same story time and again.
