Will MHT CET 2020 be Cancelled?
With the increase in the number of Covid-19 cases in Maharashtra, there is uncertainty whether MHT CET 2020 be conducted or cancelled.
MHT CET 2020, which was scheduled to begin from July 04, 2020, has been postponed. So far, CET Cell Maharashtra has not given any clarity on the new exam date for the entrance test. CET Cell planned to conduct the exam in multiple shifts, and the exam has been postponed due to an increase in the number of Covid-19 cases. Maharashtra is the worst affected state in India with the highest number of Covid-19 cases. Recently, the state government has also informed the Centre that it could not conduct the final-year exams. In such a scenario, students and parents raise doubts about conducting MHT CET 2020.
Is Maharashtra Government Planning to Conduct Remote Proctored Test for MHT CET?
An idea has been proposed by a committee with regard to the online proctored test for MHT CET 2020. If this idea gets approved by the government, students can take the entrance test from home. Students who do not have a computer/ laptop with internet can choose to appear for the entrance exam through test centre. So far, the idea has not been approved.

Is there any Chance to Conduct MHT CET 2020 in September?
Conducting MHT CET 2020 in September will be possible only if the number of Covid-19 cases reduces in the state. If the cases keep increasing, the state government will either postpone or cancel MHT CET. If JEE Main exam takes place in September, MHT CET will also be conducted.
Is there any chance for the Cancellation of MHT CET 2020?
If CET Cell wants to conduct MHT CET 2020 in August or September, the exam has to be divided into multiple sessions. At the same time, social distancing measures and other safety measures have to be followed in each exam centre. As Maharashtra has the highest Covid-19 cases, is it possible to hold an exam with strict safety measures? It will be a challenging task for the government.
