Yes, you may be eligible for benefits in NEET Karnataka counseling if your father is a Person with Disability (PWD). The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) offers reservations and benefits to candidates who have a parent with a disability.
Here are the details:
1. *Reservation*: 3% of the total seats are reserved for candidates who have a parent with a disability (PWD).
2. *Eligibility*: The candidate's father should have a minimum 40% disability and should be certified by a competent medical authority.
3. *Documentation*: You need to submit a disability certificate issued by a competent medical authority, along with a declaration by the candidate that their father is a PWD.
4. *Benefits*: You will be eligible for reservation under the PWD category, which may improve your chances of getting a seat in a medical college.
To avail of these benefits, you need to:
1. *Declare*: Mention your father's disability status in the NEET application form.
2. *Upload documents*: Upload the disability certificate and declaration during the document upload process.
3. *Verify*: Verify your documents during the counseling process.
