Hi,
OPNO category stands for “Open category with no sub-category”. This means that the candidates who are from Open or general category, but don’t have any sub-category falls under the OPNO category. So we can say that the General unreserved category is the OPNO category. General-PH does not come under OPNO category.
Hi Soumya,
OpNO category stands for open category without any sub- categories.
