J&K Poverty Definitions Spark Quota Row

J&K's EWS criteria have triggered political debate over alleged regional disparities in job quotas. Critics cite differences between BPL populations and EWS certificates issued in J&K. Of 758 EWS jobs filled, 697 went to Jammu and 61 to Kashmir. The govt says EWS eligibility is centrally determined, while revised reservation rules await Centre's approval.
