NEET PG Counselling 2022: MCC Allows Students to Alter Their Application Categories, Details Here
MCC has allowed NEET PG 2022 counselling candidates to change their nationality to Indian. It is informed that the candidates can avail the facility of 'Change of Category/Nationality' only once.
NEET PG Counselling 2022: The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has now allowed candidates to change their category from Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC) or Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) to Unreserved (UR) in National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET) PG counselling 2022. Moreover, the MCC has allowed NEET PG 2022 counselling candidates to change their nationality to Indian. The move came after the MCC allowed candidates to change their nationality from Indian to Non-Residential Indian (NRI).
“It is for the information of NEET PG counselling 2022 candidates who had inadvertently filled their category as SC/ ST/ EWS/ OBC in the registration form of NBE but later realised that they cannot claim reserved category seats due to any reason. MCC of DGHS, MoHFW is allowing the ‘Change of Category’ option on the front page of the Registration form, which may be availed by only those candidates who wish to change their category from SC/ST/OBC/EWS to UR category for Round 1 of NEET PG Counselling 2022 and subsequent rounds,” the MCC said in the official notification.
The MCC further added that once the candidates change their category or nationality from ‘NRI’ to ‘INDIAN’, they will be deemed UR/Indian for further rounds of NEET PG counselling 2022 and will not be able to change their category or nationality. It is again informed that the candidates can avail the facility of ‘Change of Category/Nationality’ only once. Also, per the counselling policy of MCC of DGHS, MoHFW, the benefit of OBC reservation is given to candidates of OBC-NCL category who belong to Central List of OBC,” MCC notification further stated.
