An assistant professor, working in a government organisation under the EWS category, is facing issues with their EWS certificate. While applying for the certificate, they incorrectly stated their occupation as 'student' instead of 'teaching faculty'. This discrepancy was discovered during the document verification process for their government job, leading to a show cause notice. The certificate itself does not reflect employment status, only income. The individual is seeking guidance on how to rectify the situation and respond to the notice.
