Thus, the concerned authority will first allot the seats on the basis of merit and priority of options and continues in the same order. If at any stage in round 1, the seats got cancelled then that will be considered for allotment of a seat in the next iteration. Therefore multiple iterations may take place in the 1st Phase.
