  • Paper-II is subjective in nature and tests the candidate’s ability to write and understand the engineering concepts.
  • Candidates who qualify both papers are called for document verification.
  • Final selection is based on the candidate’s performance in Paper-I and Paper-II, subject to meeting the eligibility criteria and document verification.
