The Dr. Ambedkar Intercaste Marriage Scheme is usually for general (non-SC/ST) marrying SC/ST partner. As you're already SC and wife is ST, you may not qualify for the ₹2.5 lakh reward. However, some states have special intercaste schemes for SC-ST couples. Check with your state SC/ST Welfare Department. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
