InactiveDear experts,
I am a OBC Boy from jharkhand and I married to a SC girl who belongs to west begal.we got married in jharkhand in judicial court of ranchi.
She applied in West bengal govt and got selected on basis of her SC reservation. As we all know caste will not be changed even after marriage as per supreme court inter caste law, hence she will continue getting her SC benefits.
Now the question is after marriage her present address changed to jharkhand address coz she is living with me. and the west bengal govt is asking for residential certificate of husband’s place (For married girl). If she show present address of jharkhand then will she able to get SC benefit in west bengal ? West bengal govt clearly mentioned that the applicant should be resident of west bengal.She did her schooling,gradution from west bengal and has voter ID, ration card and caste certificate from west bengal only.
Just marrying in other state will void her resevation of eligiblity of job?

I must say its a good question and my primary reply is as follows. More replies from others are expected.She applied in West Bengal govt and got selected on basis of her SC reservation.
As she already selected for the post, you should not worry about the change of present address. It might not be possible to apply for that post after marriage as she would no longer be a resident of West Bengal. There is no bar of marriage in other state.
west bengal govt is asking for residential certificate of husband’s place (For married girl). If she show present address of jharkhand then will she able to get SC benefit in west bengal ?
She has no other option but to submit the residential address of her husband and show present address of Jharkhand. It it clear that she applied for the post before marriage fulfilling all the norms and thats why she is entitled to get all the benefits.
March 31, 2012 at 7:05 am #71806InactiveDear Vickey,
When a woman born in SC/ST marries to a man belonging to forward caste, her caste by birth do not change by virtue of her marriage. So, you rightly said, she would continue SC/ST benefits.
A person belonging to SC/ST migrates from one state to another state may avail SC/ST benefits to the later State subject to the condition that the caste of the migrant is notified by the President of India under Article 341 of the Constitution of India for the later State.
The list of caste for West Bengal and Jharkhand may differ because, SC/ST in a particular State would depend on the nature and extent of disadvantages and social hardships may be totally non-existent in another State.
Now the question is, is this migration from West Bengal to Jharkhand, of permanent nature? If so, then it may violate the basic condition of employment at West Bengal.March 31, 2012 at 7:35 am #71807InactiveDear Vickey,
I would like to inform you that Govt. provides incentives for inter caste marriage, so, don’t forget to avail it.March 31, 2012 at 12:07 pm #71808InactiveThanks for the prompt reply and guidance. but first two posts have different views on my question which is quite confusing :-s
Again i would like to ask whether she will get benefit of SC reseravation in West Bengal after showing present address of jharkhand?
@Wbxpress
What kind of incentive she will get? and how much? any rule for that?
Regards.
VickeyMarch 31, 2012 at 4:07 pm #71812InactiveYes. She should get the benefit as she fulfiled the terms and conditions at the time of application and her caste cant be changed due to inter caste marriage. Its clear as per my reply.
For eradication of untouchability financial assistance of Rs.5000/- was provided to inter caste married couples. As per Social Welfare Department Government order No. 36111, dated 27.11.2006, the amount of incentive has increased from Rs. 5,000/- to Rs. 50,000/-. 50% in the form of fixed deposit in joint account and 50% in cash for purchase of utensils.
please have a look at the attached file for more info.March 31, 2012 at 6:01 pm #71813InactiveThanks Som,
you cleared my all doubts… Thanks to everyone in this forum.
Well again one question.
Where we need to claim for incentive? and can we both get incentive, I mean me from jharkhand and she from west bengal govt?
Also in your attached PDF it is showing rs 5000 for west bengal but you are saying it is rs 50000.
Kindly reply
Thanks and regardsApril 1, 2012 at 4:46 am #71819InactiveWhere we need to claim for incentive?
You have to approach the District headquarters, Collector office. Meet the officer in charge of social welfare department.
can we both get incentive, I mean me from jharkhand and she from west bengal govt?
Actually an application is required to be filed from the upper caste Person. There should not be two different applications. In your case you should file the application from Jharkhand and no any other application will be entitled from your wife.
Also in your attached PDF it is showing rs 5000 for west bengal but you are saying it is rs 50000.
The government has been implementing the scheme from 1958 and 50 % of the amount is given by the Centre. Like this every state has different amount for inter cast marriage. You should get the information of the actual amount from the Collector Office.
I am attaching herewith an application form. You need to have your address proof and marriage proof certificate and caste certificates. You need to declare in the form all necessary columns with signatures of witnesses. Its a lengthy procedure and it may take over 6 months.January 7, 2013 at 10:55 am #76303InactiveGuidelines of Scheme for the encouragement of the Inter-Caste Marriage
