Dear Gyaneshwar,

Caste system in India has since long been abolished. Caste discrimination of any form or nature is illegal and a criminal offense.

You should ascertain the date of declaration of results by the Railway Recruitment Board, You are certainly entitled to clarify all your doubts with the Board.

In my opinion, your result will be considered in the Category you applied.

Regards,
