This limited facility/access for modification during the said two days window would be available only for the candidates who had filled up their applications selecting any of the educational boards as per the list referred to in para 2 above.

The candidates, who are eligible to modify applications to the above extent, are also being informed separately through registered SMS/Email.
5. The latest application will be treated as final and the merit list will be prepared based on the details mentioned in last modifir:d online application.
