The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE) in Kerala has announced that a staggering 967 applications for the NEET PG 2025 counseling process contain significant errors. All affected candidates are urgently required to rectify these issues and resubmit their documents within the specified deadline.
The CEE highlighted that many problems stem from outdated or unreadable certificates, along with a notable number of signatures submitted in the wrong format. A comprehensive list of these applicants is now available on the official CEE portal, accessible through the ‘Defective List’ link.
How to Verify Your Application for Errors
To find out if your application has been flagged, simply log in to cee.kerala.gov.in using your application number and password. Once logged in, navigate to the ‘Memo Details’ section within your candidate profile to review the specific errors. Remember, all necessary corrections and document re-uploads must be completed by 5:00 PM on October 27, 2025.
No Second Chances: A Strict Deadline
The admission authority has made it unequivocally clear: this is the final opportunity for corrections. Failure to address any discrepancies, especially those concerning Nativity documents, by the deadline will result in the forfeiture of reservation benefits, even if correct proofs were submitted previously. Don’t miss this crucial window!
Important Clarifications on Eligibility
It’s important to note that candidates who earned their Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) degrees from Kerala medical institutions but whose parents are non-Keralites are still eligible for admission. However, they will not qualify for communal, special, or disability-based reservations. Furthermore, a 2024 Kerala High Court ruling has lifted the nativity restriction for non-Keralite service doctors, enabling them to apply under the service quota.
