HELLO,

Yes you may be able to get admission in Government Engineering College (GEC) in the second year through the lateral entry scheme but it depends on the certain conditions :-

1.Eligibility:-

  • You must have completed a Diploma in Engineering/Polytechnic for atleast 3 years or hold a Bsc degree with Mathematics as one of the subjects.
  • Minimum percentage criteria usually as generally 45-50% for general category and relaxation for reserved categories

How you can apply :-

1.In Chhattisgarh admissions to second year for lateral entry are done through state level counselling conducted by DTE Raipur

2.You need to apply for the counselling process when the notification is released and select GEC as your preferred college

3.Kindly check the number of seats before applying because your admission also depends on the number of seats available in the second year under lateral entry quota

4.Branch Change may or may not be allowed depending on the seat availability

5.If you are currently in a Diploma course in Raipur then you will be eligible after completing it

So if you are doing a diploma in Engineering then you can definitely apply for lateral entry to GEC in 2nd year through counselling

Hope this Helps!
