The admissions in lateral entry for this college are based on the merit of students. It is up to the college to give admission. You can also attempt MHCET for it. Since you are still studying, I would suggest you to improve your marks.

You have to write the test for it and on basis of that you will get the admission and then branch.

yes ,you can easily take admission in lateral entry of btech but for this you have to know before hand
how the college takes admission directly or through state or national level exam and secure good rank to get preferred branch

No, it is not possible, if you don't have a Diploma degree for lateral entry.

On the basis of diploma, you can get admission in any college. You should do counselling for that. Kindly choose college carefully. Take information about placements & quality of education very carefully even you are getting government /autonomous college.
