Changing your caste after getting a government job based on reservation may result in legal and disciplinary action against you. This is because reservation in government jobs is provided to individuals based on their caste or community, and changing your caste after getting the job would amount to misrepresentation or fraud. Also, it is illegal to change your caste or community for the purpose of availing reservation benefits. Doing so amounts to cheating under the Indian Penal Code, 1860 and can result in imprisonment and fine.
If it is discovered that you have changed your caste or community to avail reservation benefits after getting the job, your appointment may be terminated and you may be asked to refund any benefits or promotions that you have received based on the reservation. Additionally, you may also face disciplinary action for fraud or misrepresentation.
