Hi,

You cannot apply for the 371j article in Karnataka if you have not studied in the 6 eligible cities. Even if your parents have studied in Karnataka, you will not be eligible.  These include Bidar, Kalaburagi, Yadgir, Raichur, Koppal, and Ballari. However, if you have a domicile certificate from these cities, you can then apply.

Hope this helps.
