Hello,

Yes, you may be eligible to claim the rural quota if you meet the specific criteria set by the institution or examination board. Here’s the process:

1. Eligibility Period : Many institutions require candidates to have studied in a recognized rural school for a minimum period, usually between 7–10 years.
2. Certification : Obtain a certificate from your school authorities confirming that your education from 2nd to 12th standard was in a rural area.
3. Quota Policy : Check the definition of "rural" by the concerned authority, as it may vary.
4. Documentation : Submit proof such as school records and rural area residence proof.

Verify the specific guidelines to confirm eligibility.

Hope it helps !
