Is a PG degree required to do MS after BTech, or can I directly do MSc in UAE for a Bachelor's/Postgraduate?

No, a postgraduate (PG) degree is not required - you can directly pursue an MSc after completing your BTech in Computer Science.
Most universities in the UAE accept applicants with a relevant bachelor's degree, such as BTech, for MSc programs. You do not need an additional PG qualification.
