Status of SC Girl after her marriage to upper caste men

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 10 April 2010 This query is : Resolved 
Hi,I would like to know that if a Scheduled Caste Girl marries an upper caste men, then whether she can claim benefits under reservation.
Kiran Kumar (Expert) 10 April 2010
as far as my knowledge is concerned, yes she can....but her husband and her children wont be able to claim such a benefit.
O. Mahalakshmi (Expert) 10 April 2010
Why not she may get married with upper caste person. But her caste never changed. But her child caste will be the father caste.
Murali Krishna (Expert) 10 April 2010
Yes. She can maintain her status as scheduled caste or scheduled tribe. However, her children will not get the benefit.
niranjan (Expert) 10 April 2010
oYes,since it is by birth.
Arvind Singh Chauhan (Expert) 10 April 2010
I agree with all above opinions.
mahendrakumar (Expert) 10 April 2010

she can maintain sc status and her child will have an "option" to claim sc status for reservation and other related benefits
Adv.Shine Thomas (Expert) 10 April 2010
I agree with the above views.
N RAMESH. (Expert) 11 April 2010
Her caste remains the same. she can claim the benefits.
As rightly said by Mr.Mahendrakumar, her children has option to choose her caste.

It is not a rule that children will get the caste of father and not the mother.
