My son got 122 marks (rank 34500 AIR and 8582 OBC) in JEE Mains 2018. I belong to OBC category. What are my chances to get any of the NITs?

There is very less chance to get any government college as your son's marks is quite low. So, sorry for that. -
122 marks and OBC are okay for admission in new NITs or NITs remote from pan India presence like - Agartala, etc. -

Yes, but not the top ones. Your son can check NIT-Agartala for mechanical, civil, electronics or instrumentation engineering. -
