You can also consider seeking employment as a translator or language officer in ministries such as Culture, External Affairs, or Education. There are so many other options you can explore if you really want a government job, like a School teacher or an Assistant Professor.

There's a percentage relaxation for reserved category students in DU for an MA Sanskrit program. Though it can vary depending on the college, the general relaxation given to categories is
OBC/CW/PwBD: 5%
SC/ST: 5%
It's better to check out the official website of DU for accurate and updated guidelines.

No, it's necessary. You can even opt for an MA in Sanskrit without having a degree in BA Sanskrit. A recognised bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline is enough. No doubt, studying Sanskrit at school or UG level will give you a strong base for further studies, it also depends on one's interests and future goals.

Sanskrit language, its literature, philosophy, and culture. You read the epics, scriptures, poetry, and philosophical treatises in Sanskrit. 
You'll basically master reading, writing, speaking, and understanding the language that'll eventually help you take up research or teaching roles in the future.
