This also applies to all GMERS Medical Colleges and Gujarat Adani Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhuj — these institutes do not have separate Management Quota seats but do have NRI seats, and any vacant NRI seats there will similarly be converted to Management Quota seats with Management Quota fees.
