NEET PG 2025
1
Only 1 govt college (JNIMS) for Manipur state PG counselling
Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences (JNIMS) is Manipur's sole state PG counselling institution. The seat count is tiny — approximately 40-50 seats across all specialities. — Formity's review of Manipur DMER 2025 data.
≠RIMS
RIMS Imphal has separate MCC AIQ seats — different from JNIMS state counselling
Regional Institute of Medical Sciences Imphal has AIIMS-equivalent status and its seats go through MCC AIQ, not Manipur state counselling. Don't conflate the two. Planning for RIMS requires MCC registration; JNIMS requires Manipur state registration.
100%
100% domicile restriction — non-Manipuri candidates not eligible for state quota
Manipur enforces strict domicile. The only route for non-Manipuri candidates is MCC AIQ from RIMS Imphal — entirely separate from state counselling.
NE8
Northeast candidates from other NE states may get domicile relaxation — verify with JNIMS
Some Northeast states have reciprocal domicile relaxation agreements. Candidates from Nagaland, Mizoram etc. should verify with JNIMS directly before the counselling cycle whether they qualify for state quota consideration.

Key Insights

Northeast Exposure
RIMS Imphal offers unique clinical exposure to tropical and infectious diseases common in the Northeast. Malaria, TB, snakebite, and trauma cases are higher than plains states. Excellent for surgical training.
High ST Demographics
Manipur's tribal population (hill districts: Senapati, Tamenglong, Chandel, Churachandpur) means high ST reservation in state quota. Valley Meitei population competes in general category.
Very Limited Seats
With only 4 institutes and 33 government seats, Manipur PG is one of India's smallest PG ecosystems. Competition for state quota clinical branches is extremely intense.
Security & Connectivity
Imphal is well-connected by air. Newer highway projects are improving road connectivity. Security situation has improved significantly. RIMS and JNIMS are in Imphal city with good infrastructure.
