Bihar sets 2026 UGMAC document rules for disability, NRI and minority quota candidates
The Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) issued an advisory on 28 June 2026 spelling out the documents that disability (DQ), NRI and minority quota candidates need for the 2026 UG medical and dental counselling, UGMAC-2026.

For the disability quota, the advisory lists the centres allowed to issue disability certificates and the disabilities each can certify. National centres include VMMC and Safdarjang Hospital in Delhi, the All India Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in Mumbai (locomotor disability only), IPGMER in Kolkata and Madras Medical College in Chennai. Inside Bihar, assessment is done at government colleges including PMCH and NMCH in Patna, IGIMS Patna, DMCH Darbhanga and JLNMCH Bhagalpur, each cleared for specific disability types; IGIMS Patna, for instance, covers visual, locomotor, hearing and speech disabilities.
The board says the full updated document list for the disability quota will appear in the UGMAC-2026 prospectus, and any rule change will be notified when the online application opens.
What this means for you: if you are applying under the disability, NRI or minority quota, get your certificates from the designated centres only, and keep them ready to upload the moment UGMAC-2026 registration opens. A certificate from a centre that is not on the board’s list can cost you the quota claim.
