Planning rural service after MBBS in Karnataka? The 2026 compulsory-service notification — PDF covers MBBS admissions in 2020–21 or earlier who completed internship in 2026. Match your batch and bond before using it.
Key points to check
- The notice sets out one year of service in government hospitals, with allotment based on vacancies, merit and preferences.
- Government-quota candidates receive priority; remaining vacancies may be filled by institutional-seat candidates, and surplus candidates may be exempted.
- Higher-study permission can defer the obligation under applicable conditions. Obtain a written NOC; admission to postgraduate study does not automatically remove the service requirement.
Documents and official downloads
- The 6 October revised calendar — PDF closed option entry on 21 October and scheduled the result for 23 October. Check Bond Enforcement Cell updates for outcomes and reporting instructions.
- Read the Health Department's NOC affidavit and document checklist — PDF.
- Keep your admission order, internship completion certificate, identity documents and relevant bond or undertaking ready.
For continued revision, open FirstHope MBBS notes and study collections. Confirm individual exemptions and accepted forms with your college and the Bond Enforcement Cell.
