We study the twist-3 corrections to the neutrino induced deeply virtual meson production due to the chiral odd transversity Generalized Parton Distribution (GPD). We found that in contrast to pion electroproduction, in neutrino-induced processes these corrections are small. This occurs due to large contribution of unpolarized GPDs $H,\, E$ to the twist-2 amplitude in neutrinoproduction. Our results are important for analyses of the pion and kaon production in the Minerva experiment at FERMILAB.
