it may be, discuss the matter with a lawyer in your area because every state has different laws regarding the same

Children derive caste from their father and not from mother in general, death of father does not alter the situation, discuss in detail with local lawyer.

My opinion is same as that of Mr. Goyal.

Yes, generally the caste of the father passes on to his child.However this is no fixed rule.
If it is found that the child stays with his mother only and raised by her having no or little relationship with his father the he would get the caste of his mother.
