Maharashtra CET Cell Investigates Social Media Claims and Exam Score DiscrepanciesPreviousNext

The Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has filed a police complaint to investigate social media videos alleging issues with the MHT-CET exam's transparency. The CET Cell seeks verification of these claims and legal action if necessary to maintain public trust. Additionally, the CET Cell is scrutinizing data showing discrepancies where students with lower Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) scores achieved unusually high MHT-CET and JEE percentiles, prompting further examination of examination results.
