Hello Raushan,
Yes, you are eligible to get lateral admission in engineering after the completion of your Diploma. How you got admission is of no relevance. What matters is how much marks you have obtained in Diploma.
Best wishes.

Hello Tushar, It's interesting and nice to see your eagerness to do B.A. But unfortunately, Diploma will not enable you to gain lateral admission. But why worry? Download brochure and application form of IGNOU. Just now they have extended last date for admission in July session. Begin with first year. Best wishes.

Have you done a diploma course? Because diploma people enter laterally.

Hello Mehebub,
Lateral admissions are invariably based on marks obtained in your Diploma course. In addition to this, eligibility is of the students of the state. Hence, the process begins only after result is published. Keep on checking on the website of DTE of edu of your state for further details and announcement.
