Hi Aspirant,

You can do two things for the scenario mentioned above. One, you can connect with the helpdesk of KMAT. Second, you can paste the photo that you have uploaded for registration on the printout of admit card. But for the second option too you still need to contact some official to know whether it is right or not.

For more information regarding KMAT refer the link below,
