III.      ELIGIBILITY FOR ADMISSION

(A)  Admission to the course shall be regulated as per AP Educational

Institutions (Regulation of Admission) Order, 1974 issued in G.O.P.No. 646,

dt 10-7-1979 of Education (w) department of Govt. AP and as amended from time

            to time. Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences is a Statewide University as per the

            Presidential Order. Accordingly, the admissions will be made as per the

            procedure described in the  annexure IV of  GOP 646 as mentioned below at

            column (B)with regard to local area reservation for AU (42%), OU (36%) and

            SVU (22%) university areas wherever necessary. The GOP 646 can be viewed

            on the website www.nimsexams.com

 

(B)  Annexure IV of GOP.646:   

Procedure for implementation of the reservation in favour of local candidates provided under the Andhra Pradesh Educational Institutions (Regulation of Admissions) Order, 1974 in respect of State-wide Universities and State-wide Educational Institutions (which are subject to the control of the State Government)

 

1. The number of available seats in the course of study shall first be computed by  

    deducting from the total number of seats provided in that course the number of  

    seats reserved for candidates from outside the State.

 

      2. If the number of available seats does not exceed 3 the provisions relating to   

          reservation in favour of local candidates shall not apply to such course.  Where, 

          however, the number of available seats exceeds 3 further action should be taken 

          in the manner set out in the following paragraph.

 

 3.The number of seats reserved in the aggregate in favour of local candidates in 

    relation to all the three University local areas, namely the Andhra University 

    area, the Osmania University area and Sri Venkateswara University area shall  

    be determined; this number shall be 85% of the available seats, any fraction of a 

    seat being counted as one, provided that there shall be atleast one unreserved 

    seat.

 

      4. The number of seats reserved in the aggregate in favour of local candidates of

          all the three University areas having been determined as provided under

          paragraph,3 the number of such reserved seats allocated in favour of the 

          candidates of each of the three University areas shall then be determined.  For    

          this purpose the number of reserved seats shall be allocated amongst the local 

          candidates of the Andhra University, Osmania University and Sri

          Venkateswara University local areas in the ratio of 42: 36: 22 respectively. 

          While allocating the reserved seats, fractions of a seat shall be adjusted by

          counting the greatest fraction as one and if necessary also the greater of

          remaining fractions as another, and where the fraction to be so counted cannot

          be selected by reason of fractions being equal, the selection shall be by lot.  

          There shall however be atleast one seat allocated for the local candidates in 

          respect of each local area. 

 

      5. From amongst all the eligible applicants whether such applicants are local

          candidates in relation to any of the three University local areas or not, a

          provisional list of admissions to fill all the available seats shall be drawn up. 

         This list shall be prepared on the basis of the relative merits of all the eligible

         applicants and the reservations in favour of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled

         Tribes, Backward Classes, Women etc., as provided in the relevant rules of

         admission.  The candidates included in the provisional admission list shall be

         arranged in order of merit or where the rules of admission provide for their

         arrangement in any other order, in the order so provided.

6.      The provisional admission list shall be scrutinized to ascertain the number of 

      local  candidates in relation to each University local area that find a place in 

      that list.  If the number of local candidates inrelation to each University area

      that find a place in the provisional admission list equals or exceeds the number 

      of seats reserved and allocated in favour of the local candidates of each such 

      area then such provisional admission list shall be deemed to be the final 

      admission list.

 

7.      If, however, on the scrutiny referred to in para 6 above it is found that the number of local candidates in relation to anyone or more University areas falls short of the number of seats reserved in favour of the local candidates of such University area or areas (referred to as “deficit University area or areas”) the local candidates in relation to the deficit University area or areas, not included in the provisional admission list, shall be arranged in order of merit in a separate list referred to as the remainder list.  Thereafter candidates finding a place in the provisional admission list and belonging to either of the following two categories, viz.:

 

(a) Non-local candidates (i.e.,those who are not local candidates in respect of any of the three University areas; and

 

          (b) Local candidates of any University area who are in excess of the number of

          seats reserved and allocated in favour of the local  candidates of such

          University area shall be successively eliminated in reverse order from the

          bottom of the provisional admission list and shall be replaced by local

          candidates in relation to the deficit University area or areas selected in order of

          merit from the Remainder list; so however, that the provisions relating to

          reservations in favour of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Backward

          classes, Women etc., are observed to the extent that these are not inconsistent 

          with the Andhra Pradesh Educational Institution (Regulation of Admissions) 

          Order, 1974.

 

    Whereas a result of the elimination of candidates falling under category (b)

    above the number of local candidates in relation to any University area

    remaining in the provisional admission list has been reduced so as to equal the   

    number of seats reserved and allocated in favour of the local candidates of that

    University area, there shall be no further elimination of candidates in respect of 

    that University area.  Likewise where as a result of the replacement by

    candidates from the Remainder list the number of local candidates in relation to

    any University area included in the Provisional admission list has gone up so as

    to equal the number of seats reserved and allocated in favour of the local

    candidates in relation to that University area, there shall be no further 

    replacement by local candidates in relation to that University area from the

    Remainder list.  This process of successive elimination and replacement shall

    continue until the number of local candidates in respect of each deficit 

    University area or areas, as the case may be, in the provisional admission list

    equals the number of seats reserved and allocated in favour of the local 

    candidates in respect of such University area or areas; at the stage, the

    provisional admission list as so modified shall be deemed to be the final 

    admission list.

 

                                                ILLUSTRATION

 

                Illustration ‘A’:- The number of available seats in a course of study is 101.  The  

                number of seats reserved in the aggregate in favour of local candidates in  

                relation to all the three University local areas viz., Andhra University, Osmania

                University and Sri Venkateswara University will be 85% of 101, the fraction

    being counted as one.  Thus the total number of reserved seats will be 86.   

   

 

 

  These 86 seats will have to be allocated amongst the local candidates in relation  

  to the three University areas in the ratio .

 

                                                                                                   12                96                92

             of  42: 36: 22.  This will result in an allocation of 36 -------- 30 ------------- 18-----

                                                                                                  100             100               100

 

 Treating the fractions in the manner set out in paragraph 4 above, the number of  

 seats reserved and allocated in favour of Andhra, Osmania and Sri Venkateswara 

 University areas will be 36, and 19 respectively.  If in the provisional list of 

 admissions the number of local candidates in relation to the three University 

 areas is 38, 34 and 22, (the remaining 7 being non-local candidates) the 

 provisional list shall be deemed to be the final admission list.

 

 

 Illustration ‘B’:-If, in the case referred to under Illustration ‘A’, above, the 

 number of local candidates in relation to the Andhra, Osmania and Sri 

 Venkateswara University areas, are 38, 29 and 18 respectively 1(the remaining 

 16, being non-local candidates) the Osmania and Sri Venkateswara University  

 local areas will have to be treated as deficit University areas, the deficit being 2 

 seats in respect of the Osmania University area and one seat in respect of  Sri

 Venkateswara University area. The number of local candidates in relation to the

 Andhra University area has exceeded the total number of seats reserved and

 allocated in favour of that University area by two. Therefore, three candidates

 from amongst those who are non-local candidates or local candidates in relation

 to the Andhra University area will have to be eliminated from the bottom of

 provisional admission list and replaced by two local candidates in relation to 

 Osmania University area and one candidate in relation to Sri Venkateswara

 University area from the Remainder list. However, while there will be no

 restriction on the number of non-local candidates to be eliminated from the list,

 the number of local candidates in relation to the Andhra University area who may

 so be eliminated in the present case shall not exceed two since after the

 elimination of 2 such candidates the number of local candidates in relation to

 Andhra University area remaining in the provisional admission list will just equal

 36.i.e.,the number of seats reserved and allocated in favour of such candidates.

 Therefore if the last 3 candidates at the bottom of the provisional admission list

 are all local candidates in relation to the Andhra University area, the last 2 from 

 the bottom shall alone be eliminated and the 3rd candidate to be eliminated shall

 be the last non-local candidate in the provisional admission list.

 

 Illustration ‘C’:-If in the case referred to under Illustration ‘B’ any of the 

 candidate who is proposed to be eliminated is a Scheduled Caste candidate,

 whose replacement by a non-Scheduled Caste candidate will violate the rule of 

 reservation in favour of Scheduled Castes such Scheduled caste candidate shall

 be replaced only by the first available Scheduled Caste candidate in the

 Remainder list who is eligible for such replacement.

 

 Illustration ‘D’:-If in the case referred to under Illustration ‘C’ above there is no  

 Scheduled Caste candidate in the Remainder list who is a local candidate in 

 relation to the deficit University area to replace the Scheduled Caste candidate

 proposed to be eliminated from the provisional admission list, the later Scheduled

 Caste candidate shall not be eliminated from such list and the non-Scheduled

 Caste candidate immediately above him in such list being a candidate falling

 under a category liable for elimination, shall be eliminated instead.
