All MBBS and BDS candidates admitted to government and government-aided medical and dental colleges in Rajasthan must sign a service bond as a legal commitment to either serve the state government or pay a financial penalty. The Rajasthan NEET UG 2026 Information Bulletin outlines specific bond requirements based on seat type and institution category.
Key Highlights
- MBBS Government Seats: ₹10 lakh bond + 2-year mandatory government service
- BDS Government Seats: ₹4 lakh bond + ₹1 lakh bank guarantee
- Management Seats (MBBS/BDS): Payment of remaining semester fees if course is abandoned
- NRI Seats: Payment of remaining semester fees for entire course duration
- Private Colleges: Bonds determined by individual institutions; check at Round 3 joining
- All India Quota (AIQ): Same bond rules apply as state quota candidates
- Forfeiture: Applicable if candidates leave course or don’t join after Round 2+
Bond Policy for Government MBBS Seats
Candidates selected for MBBS on government seats in government medical colleges, government society medical colleges (RajMES), RUHS College of Medical Sciences, and ESIC Medical Colleges must submit a ₹10 lakh bond.
This bond represents two commitments: not leaving the course before completion, and serving the Rajasthan State Government for 2 years after completing the course. During service, candidates may be posted in different departments or locations as prescribed by the government.
Bond Violation Consequences: Failure to fulfil bond conditions results in liability to pay ₹10 lakh plus interest charged at government loan rates. This amount is recovered as arrears of land revenue. Additionally, candidates who abandon the course after joining face separate penalties beyond bond forfeiture.
BDS Government College Bond
Candidates selected for BDS at RUHS College of Dental Sciences and Government Dental College must submit:
- Bond: ₹4 lakh in favor of the college principal
- Bank Guarantee: ₹1 lakh (additional security)
If a candidate leaves before course completion, both the bond and bank guarantee are forfeited by the college.
Management & NRI Seat Bonds
01. Management Quota (MBBS & BDS)
Candidates joining management quota seats in government society colleges and RUHS CMS must submit a bond requiring payment of all remaining semester tuition fees if they abandon the course. This is not a fixed amount but depends on the actual fee structure and course duration remaining.
02. NRI Quota (MBBS & BDS)
NRI candidates must submit a bond committing to pay remaining course fees regularly. If the course is abandoned, they remain liable for all remaining semester fees. The exact bond amount depends on the college’s fee structure published at allotment.
Security Deposit vs. Bond: Key Differences
| Aspect | Security Deposit | Bond |
|---|---|---|
| Timing | Before choice filling | At joining after allotment |
| MBBS Govt Amount | ₹50,000 | ₹10 lakh |
| Refund | Refundable (adjusted against fees if joined) | Forfeited if conditions violated |
| Purpose | Ensures serious participation | Commits to service/fee obligations |
2-Year Mandatory Service Explained
MBBS graduates must serve in government health facilities, medical colleges, civil hospitals, district hospitals, or rural centres, as assigned. Posting locations and monthly stipend are determined by the government at service commencement. No exemption exists unless granted through official order.
Early exit or service abandonment triggers payment of ₹10 lakh bond plus accrued interest, with potential stipend recovery in certain cases.
Important Conditions
Original documents must be produced at joining; absence results in admission cancellation and security deposit forfeiture. The bond must be executed on ₹500 stamp paper and signed by the candidate, one surety, and two witnesses. Defence personnel, para-military staff, and government employees’ dependents are not exempt from bond obligations.
