Hello Aspirant,

Yes definitely you can take part but note that as you belongs to state other than Telangana so you will only be eligible for Management or private seats not for government quota seats.

Also note that till now the Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS), Warangal, the counselling authority for Telangana state quota counselling has not released any notification or any announcement regarding dates for NEET 2021 counselling so at this point of time it would be very difficult to guide you with the schedule of NEET 2021  counselling for state quota seats.

But it is expected to start anytime soon so you should keep regular check on the official website of The Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS), Warangal as given below :-
