The **Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA)** has confirmed the implementation of a new **Internal Reservation Policy** for all Scheduled Caste (SC) applicants seeking seats in the 2025 PG Medical counselling cycles. This is a crucial procedural change that directly affects how SC seats are distributed and how your documents must be verified.
For the 2025 admission cycle, KEA is not treating the SC quota as a single entity. Instead, SC candidates are grouped into three distinct internal categories based on government orders (H.N. Nagamohan Das Committee recommendations). You will now compete only against candidates within your specific category:
| Internal Category | Share within SC Quota | Implication for Allotment |
|---|---|---|
| Category A (SC-A) | 6% | Compete only against SC-A candidates for these seats. |
| Category B (SC-B) | 6% | Compete only against SC-B candidates for these seats. |
| Category C (SC-C) | 5% | Compete only against SC-C candidates for these seats. |
This new system is entirely dependent on the specific details provided on your **Caste Certificate**. To ensure you are correctly mapped to your sub-quota, KEA required all eligible SC candidates to submit updated documents.
Your admission hinges on the following documentation steps:
🚨 Consequence of Non-Compliance: If you failed to submit the internal-reservation-ready certificate in time, KEA will process your allotment based on the earlier general SC category, meaning you will **lose the benefit of competing within your specific sub-quota (SC-A, B, or C).**
The purpose of this algorithmic change is to distribute PG Medical seats more precisely among SC sub-groups. By separating the competition, candidates now have a reserved percentage of seats where their merit rank applies only within their newly defined category (A, B, or C).
