If a sc candidate selected as own merit “ur" category,

This discussion explores whether an SC candidate selected on their own merit under the 'UR' category is entitled to reservation benefits during promotions. It also addresses the implications if their caste verification fails due to a government dispute. The consensus is that if selected purely on merit without availing reservation, the candidate is treated as a general candidate and their selection remains valid. If caste verification is later successful, they may then be eligible to claim reservation benefits in promotions.
