MHT CET PCB 2026: Delay in admissions
According to the PTI report, Maharashtra’s Higher and Technical Education Minister Chandrakant Patil recently highlighted that the NEET UG 2026 re-exam will delay the academic session for engineering and pharmacy colleges in the state. The CET Cell had planned to complete admissions by June-end, but the re-NEET 2026 scheduled for June 21 will further push the admission schedule.
“Engineering admissions cannot begin earlier because several students who do not perform well in NEET later opt for engineering courses,” Patil said.
Education minister further noted that admissions to 9 engineering branches and 15% pharmacy seats reserved under the All-India quota rely on NEET scores, and the process cannot proceed until the re-exam is conducted and results are out.
