This discussion clarifies the criteria for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) reservation, specifically concerning property ownership. It explains that family property, even if held separately or in different locations, is aggregated to determine EWS eligibility. The definition of 'family' for this purpose includes the applicant, their parents, siblings under 18, spouse, and children under 18. Owning specific thresholds of agricultural land or residential property, regardless of income, can disqualify an applicant.
