NEET UG counselling Round 1 choice filling is underway, and candidates are required to submit their college preferences online. Multiple outlets report that the process is open now and that preferences must be finalized before the choice-lock deadline.
NDTV says candidates can submit their preferences until August 13, after which the choice-lock closes. India Today similarly focuses on what candidates must do during Round 1 choice filling, outlining the steps involved in selecting and submitting options as part of the counselling process.
While both sources agree on the start of Round 1 choice filling and the need to complete choice submission within the stated timeframe, their coverage differs in emphasis: one highlights the specific deadline for submitting preferences, while the other focuses more broadly on candidate instructions for the Round 1 choice-filling stage.
