Kerala NEET UG 2026: 1,801 Candidates Ineligible for State Quota Counselling
The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE), Kerala, has published a list of candidates who cannot participate in state-quota counselling for MBBS and BDS courses from Phase 3 onwards because they have been admitted through the All India Quota (AIQ). The official PDF dated October 21, 2026, is numbered up to 1,801. This differs from the 2,063 figure in the supplied draft title, so candidates should rely on the CEE document when checking their status.
