Hey shephali!!

No there is no chance, that you can get a government college with 26 percentile.

The minimum percentile for other categories like SC/ST/OBC also ranges between 65-80.

So it's better to try in other colleges, for which you can use the college predictor link mentioned below:

You can also drop and study thoroughly again to get into a government college next year.

Hope this will clarify your doubt. Have a nice day!

No, according to this percentile you have no chances of a government engineering college. If you belong to sc/st category also, the minimum percentile should be 75 to get into a good engineering college.

You can try in private engineering colleges accepting jee mains score, link for which is given below.
