With your rank, getting Mechanical or Electrical at UIET KUK is very unlikely.
Mechanical may be possible only if cutoff increases in the final rounds (not guaranteed).
JEE Main Rank: 3.1 Lacs (CRL)
OBC Rank: 1.1 lakh

With a JEE Main rank around 3 Lacs (Home State quota, EWS/General category), admission into UIET Kurukshetra (KUK) for Mechanical or Electrical Engineering is possible, but not guaranteed for the first JoSAA rounds. Let me break it down:
UIET Kurukshetra Admission via HSTES (Home State Quota)
- Mode of Admission: Through JEE Main + HSTES counseling (state quota).
- Cutoff Trends (Home State, General/EWS):
- CSE/IT: Usually closes below ~1.5–2 Lacs rank.
- ECE: ~2–2.5 Lacs rank.
- Mechanical/Electrical: Often available up to ~3–3.5 Lacs rank.
- Your Situation (Rank ~3 lakh):
- CSE/IT: Not possible.
- ECE: Borderline.
- Mechanical/Electrical: ✅ Good chance,
