Tamil Nadu: To prevent students from claiming dual Nativity, the Directorate of Medical Education in Tamil Nadu has instructed that all the aspirants who have completed their schooling from class 6 to 12 even in Tamil Nadu will also have to submit their nativity certificate along with other concerned documents to secure MBBS admission.

The Community Certificate of the parents should be enclosed to claim Communal Reservation.
