Hello Aspirant,

Yes, you qualify for the CAP (Children of Armed Persons) quota. Your father is serving in CISF (Central Industry Security Force which is under the Central Armed Police Forces), you are a domicile in Andhra Pradesh, you would be eligible for the CAP quota to be used for Category-2 (Children of CAPF personnel). Make sure that you provide correct service and domicile certificate during counselling/document verification.

Yes, you are eligible for the CAP quota in Andhra Pradesh NEET state counselling if your father is working in CISF and you are a domicile of Andhra Pradesh. The CAP quota, which stands for Children of Armed Personnel, is a horizontal reservation given to children of individuals who are serving or retired from the Army, Navy, Air Force, and central armed police forces like CISF.

Andhra Pradesh offers one percent reservation under the CAP category in the 85 percent state quota seats for medical admissions. Since CISF is part of the central armed forces and you are from Andhra Pradesh, you meet the basic eligibility criteria for this quota.

To claim this reservation, you will need to produce a valid CAP certificate issued by the Zilla Sainik Welfare Officer or an authorized defense authority. This certificate must be submitted during the counselling registration process along with your other documents like NEET rank card, domicile certificate, and educational qualifications.

Make sure you select the CAP option while filling out the counselling form and keep checking official updates from Dr. YSR University of Health Sciences, which conducts the state counselling. Being eligible for both CAP and any applicable category or gender-based reservation will increase your chances of getting a medical seat.
