Candidates must “lock” their choices before the deadline on June 12. If candidates do not lock their choices, last saved choices will be locked automatically upon reaching the deadline.
Locked choices filled by a candidate cannot be edited. If a candidate wishes to edit their choices after locking, they can do so by first submitting a request to unlock in the JoSAA portal.
An OTP will be sent to the registered mobile and email, which can be used to validate the unlock request. Once validated, candidate’s choices will be unlocked for editing. But edits need to be done before the choice filing deadline.
