Police probe sought over viral MHT-CET score videos

in5points

  1. The Maharashtra State CET cell filed a complaint with Azad Maidan police and state cyber police over viral MHT-CET videos questioning MHT-CET results and the engineering merit list.

  2. The videos claim students with low Class 12 PCM marks secured 99 or 100 percentile in MHT-CET; one alleges high scores achievable by paying money and choosing specific exam centres.

  3. The provisional engineering merit list shows 202 candidates scored above 97 percentile in MHT-CET despite less than 50% in Class 12 PCM, including two with 100 percentile.

  4. CET cell commissioner Dilip Sardesai said the videos' data is incomplete; direct comparison between Class 12 marks and MHT-CET is inappropriate due to different syllabi and evaluation methods.

  5. Analysis showed only 2 students with 40-50% PCM marks secured 100 percentile, and 61 with that range scored between 99-100 percentile, indicating a small number of outliers.
