MCC NEET UG Counselling 2026: New Guidelines for PwBD Candidates
The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has released important instructions for candidates applying under the Persons with Benchmark Disabilities (PwBD) category for NEET UG Counselling 2026. These new guidelines are crucial for PwBD candidates seeking admission to MBBS courses across the country. The MCC notice incorporates the latest "Guidelines on Assessment of Persons with Benchmark Disabilities for Admission to the MBBS Course, 2026" issued by the National Medical Commission (NMC).
A key requirement highlighted in the notice is the mandatory eligibility certificate. All PwBD candidates must obtain this certificate from one of the 62 designated medical assessment centres listed by the MCC. This certificate is essential to claim a PwBD seat during the counselling process. Candidates are advised to visit the official MCC website to review the complete list of designated centres and understand the detailed assessment procedure. Ensuring all documents, especially the PwBD eligibility certificate, are in the correct format and obtained from an authorized centre is vital to avoid any issues during seat allotment.
