Government and private have completely different reservation structures.
| College | City | Minority Type | DGME Code (General / Minority) |
|---|---|---|---|
| ERA Medical College | Lucknow | Muslim | 035 / 036 |
| Career Institute of Medical Sciences | Lucknow | Muslim | 033 / 034 |

| Integral Institute of Medical Sciences | Lucknow | Muslim | 043 / 044 |
| Teerthanker Mahaveer University | Moradabad | Jain | 062 / 063 |
Each minority college has TWO entries in the DGME seat matrix — general pool (open to all, DGME-regulated fees) and minority pool (reserved for that community, college-set fees). Subharti MC, Meerut IS a Buddhist Minority Institution (NCMEI certified), but the Supreme Court case on its minority status is pending (SLP 17003/2022). Read Section 6 for the hidden bomb this creates.

R1 data. 95 in-service candidates received 30% weightage. Each jumped 1,200–2,400 positions in UP state merit. In R3, this number doubled to 186 in-service candidates. The 30% weightage is for doctors who completed rural/government service after MBBS — a UP state policy to incentivize rural service.
