Yes, if your father is working in CISF and you are a BC-A female candidate from Andhra Pradesh, you are eligible to apply under the CAP (Children of Armed Personnel) category during NEET state counselling. The CAP quota is available in Andhra Pradesh for candidates whose parents are serving or retired personnel from the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Central Armed Police Forces like CISF. Andhra Pradesh offers 1 percent reservation under the CAP category in the 85 percent state quota for MBBS and BDS admissions.

Since you also belong to the BC-A category and are a female candidate, you can benefit from multiple reservations. The BC-A category is a vertical reservation, and Andhra Pradesh also offers 33 percent horizontal reservation for female candidates. CAP is considered a horizontal reservation, so it will be applied along with your category and gender, which can improve your chances of getting a seat in both government and private medical colleges.

To make use of the CAP quota, you must have the necessary documents like a CAP certificate issued by the Zilla Sainik Welfare Officer, along with your caste, domicile, and educational certificates. Make sure to upload all the correct documents during the NEET state counselling registration process conducted by Dr. YSR University of Health Sciences. The counselling is expected to start around August 2025, and includes multiple rounds and a mop-up round. Keep checking the official website for updates and prepare your documents in advance to avoid last-minute issues.
