Important Clarification: MANIT Bhopal

A common point of confusion is MANIT (Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology) Bhopal. MANIT is a National Institute of Technology and does not participate in DTE MP counselling. Admission to MANIT Bhopal is entirely through JoSAA counselling based on JEE Main/Advanced rank, just like other NITs across India.
