Best of luck.

Following are the top NITS for both Electrical and Mechanical Engineering graduation: (a) National Institute of Technology (NIT Trichy) (b)National Institute of Technology, Warangal (NIT, Warangal) (c) National Institute of Technology (NITC) Calicut (d) Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology (MNNIT) Allahabad (e) Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology Bhopal (f) National Institute of Technology (NIT Kurukshetra)

As you know your perperentage according to cbse is avarage and on 170 in jee main you will lie somewhere in between 25000-30000 so your chances to get a good one with good branch are minimum. But as you say that these are excluded from drawing so rank may vary. Then your chances will increase overall you get a good score.

Dear Sujith,
12th marks are not enough for taking admission in NIT. Admission to undergraduate programs are based on JEE exam. So if you are qualified in JEE exam and secured good marks then there are some chances for NIT. Well on other side, you can also try for well-known private engineering colleges. There are many recognized private engineering colleges available in India which are providing excellent engineering education along with best placement records.
Hope this information helps. Please feel free to revert.
Wish you luck.

Chances are low. You need to score more if you are in general category. If you belongs to any reserved category then there is a chance.
