Candidates featured in the merit list will be called for document verification. During this process, the submission of all original certificates will be mandatory. Failure to submit the required documents within the stipulated timeframe may result in the cancellation of the candidate's candidature.
Final selection will be based on the marks obtained in the CBT and adherence to reservation norms.
