Telangana NEET UG 2025: Round 2 Counselling Begins as KNRUHS Finalizes Seat Matrix
Published 5 Sept 20252 min read1,316 Views
The Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS), the counselling authority for Telangana, has officially commenced the second round of NEET UG 2025 counselling. This round is a critical opportunity for aspirants who did not secure a seat in the first round and for those looking to upgrade their college preference. The online choice-filling process is now active, with students encouraged to carefully review the seat matrix before submitting their options.
This round is particularly significant as it includes a total of 75 new MBBS seats added to the state's government medical colleges, following a national-level increase in seats approved by the National Medical Commission (NMC). This expansion of the seat matrix is a welcome development for aspiring doctors and is expected to slightly ease the competition.
Supreme Court Upholds Domicile Rule
In a major legal development, the Supreme Court has upheld the Telangana government's four-year domicile rule for admissions to MBBS and BDS courses under the State quota. The ruling, which affirms that a candidate must have studied in the state for four consecutive years preceding Class 12, brings clarity to the admissions process. This decision is set to have a significant impact on local candidates and confirms the state's authority to grant preferential treatment in its educational institutions.
Aspirants are advised to meticulously fill their college and course choices on the official KNRUHS portal and submit them before the deadline. The seat allotment for Round 2 will be based on the candidate's NEET rank, choices filled, and the state's updated seat matrix.
For a smooth and stress-free admission process, candidates must ensure they have all their original documents ready for verification at the time of reporting to the allotted college.
