The State government has told the High Court of Karnataka that all Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) card-holding students are eligible to participate in the counselling for admission to the undergraduate medical, dental, and engineering courses for the academic year 2024-25 under both the government and the private quota seats, on par with Indian citizens.
A Division Bench comprising Justice Anu Sivaraman and Justice Anant Ramanth Hegde recorded this submission of the State government while hearing a petition filed by Abhidyu Gowda Mandya Chandrashekar, an OCI card-holding student, who is studying in Mandya in Karnataka from the past over 10 years.
