    List of Optional Subjects for the Main Exam is below :
    Agriculture
    Management
    Animal Husbandry & Vetinary Science
    Mathematics
    Anthropology
    Mechanical Engineering
    Botany
    Medical Science
    Chemistry
    Philosophy
    Civil Engineering
    Physics
    Commerce & Accountancy
    Political Science & International Relations

    Statistics
    Indian History
    Law
    Zoology

    As per the above list there are no CSE related subject so that you have to choose other subject .

    From my opinion Maths is a good subject and you learnt the maths in your engineering also so that it will be good for you .

    Other subject you will choose based on your interest may be you select Electrical Engineering because you already know some basic things related to Electrical Engineering so that it will not difficult for you .

    So as per my opinion Maths & Electrical engineering is a good optional subject for you .

    good luck
