Solution

Answer:

The complete form of UR and EWS are

UR – Unreserved category

Forward caste, referred to as General Class or General Category or Open Category is a word used in India to describe a caste system whose representatives are socially and economically on average ahead of other Indians.

EWS – Economically Weaker Sections

The term EWS used to relate to some households or persons with earnings below a certain threshold. Although there may be other financial considerations that determine the economic insecurity of a citizen/household, income is the dominant criterion. In the field of public policy, the word must be understood because the Preamble to India’s Constitution demands economic, political and social justice.
