Students in Maharashtra aiming to enroll in professional courses after Class XII have been given additional time to apply for their caste validity certificates. The deadline has now been extended to April 30, according to officials from the Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Research and Training Institute (BARTI), Pune.
The caste validity certificate is a compulsory requirement for admission into a wide range of professional streams, including medicine, engineering, architecture, pharmacy, agriculture, and animal husbandry. It is also essential for those pursuing postgraduate professional degrees such as MBA, MCA, and LLB.
Sanjay Dane, Deputy Commissioner and member of the District Caste Certificate Verification Committee, said that the extension was granted to ensure that no eligible student is denied admission due to missed deadlines. “Students who wish to enroll in any professional course after Std XII must submit a caste validity certificate. Since this is mandatory, the government has extended the deadline to April 30 to accommodate students who were unable to apply earlier,” he explained.
Interested students are required to fill out their applications online through the official websites: https://ccvis.barti.in or https://barti.maharashtra.gov.in. After completing the online process, students must submit the original documents to the district caste certificate verification committee office, located opposite Vishrantwadi Police Station in Pune.
The extension is expected to benefit a significant number of students, particularly those from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC), who rely on the caste validity certificate for admission and scholarship benefits.
Officials urge students to complete the process well before the deadline to avoid last-minute issues.
