Reserved category candidates often ask which certificates are mandatory — CSU requires self-attested copies of the Caste/Class Certificate and, for PwBD candidates, a Medical Certificate from the Competent Authority in the Government of India prescribed format. Candidates failing to submit valid category certificates will not be considered for that reservation and will instead be treated as Unreserved (UR) candidates.
