Telangana government reserves 100% management seats in post-2014 medical colleges for local residents
In a significant move, the Government of Telangana has recently issued a GO bringing about crucial amendments to the admission rules for MBBS and BDS courses in medical and dental colleges across the state.
Effective immediately, colleges established after June 2, 2014, will implement a revised admission policy that reserves 100% of seats under the Competent Authority Quota for local candidates. The revised clause further states that 85% of the seats designated as “Competent Authority Seats” in each course shall be exclusively reserved for local candidates.
The remaining 15% of the “Competent Authority Seats” will be allocated as unreserved seats, in accordance with the specifications outlined in the Telangana Educational Institutions (Regulations, and Admissions) Order of 1974, as amended periodically. This provision applies to colleges established after June 2, 2014.
Earlier 85% seats were reserved for local candidates in non-statewide institutions and 15% of competent authority quota treated as unreserved in colleges established prior to June 2014.
The amendments were proposed by the Registrar of Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences, Telangana.
