Hi,
Check out its reviews here:

CSE might be down after few decades, but mechanical isn't. You should choose mechanical if you are a hardcore type. As a matter of fact CSE has high demand compared to mechanical right now. Just go with your heart and mind.

Hello Kapil,
You may use the comparison tool given below to compare these two colleges:

But, however, Thapar University is a better option for mechanical engineering when compared to PEC.

You can go for management quota but the fee will be high.
So if you can pay a heavy amount for doing B.Tech then you must go for it.
But, if you don't want to waste such money then take a drop and prepare well next year.

Core companies specific to the course as well as non-core companies offers job to mechanical engineering students in Thapar University. You can refer to this link for the companies:

Mechanical is a better branch than electrical in terms of opportunities and placements. If you don't have any special interest in any of these go with mechanical.

Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest and reputed courses of Thapar University. It is ABET accredited which adds a great deal to its value. Overall, this university ranks amongst top 20 engineering colleges in India with placements better than many NITs.

Non Tech companies profiles like analytics, business solutions, consultancies have an all branch eligibility criteria. So, you can surely get into a non tech IT company and some very good of those recruit from Thapar University.

Mechanical engineering will be smooth for you if you had an interest in the Newtonian Physics in your high school. However, electrical engineering asks for a lot more efforts. Personally, in terms of ease I would go with mechanical.
Also, mechanical engineering from Thapar has a lot more value in terms of placements and opportunities compared to Electrical. If you have choices then go with mechanical.
