It's very finr than HRD is thinking to get more IIT's but the thing is whether those colleges deserve to be IIT !!!! I have been to AMU & BHU and they are way behind IIT stature...even IIT Roorkee is on a lower side to the existing IIT's reason being clear than it is a new one...
I would suggest,give these institutes some time..provide funds to grease their over-all machinery including academics.
Otherwise irrelevantly naming institutes as IIT's will degrade its UNIVERSAL NAME!!!
It was hard luck of IT-BHU that still it remains the same. I think now institute is destined to become IIT-V. With its outstanding standard and facilitiesit can match any of the existing IITs.
I don't understand why the NITs are not being considred for upgradation? Where have these colleges that have been mention come from? Apart from the IT-BGU none of them figure on any A+ list
Both AMU & AHU deserves the coveted upgradation but I personally feel not for Osmania and Andhra university as still they need lot of improvements.Cochin university ia also a good choice. The board should analyse each and every aspect regarding this issue as lot of students future relies on this reformation.Lets keep our fingers crossed and see the outcome!!!
A great leap forward for upgrading the standard of education in Engineering stream. besides the center should also consider the plan for promoting such type of activities in the supposed alternative system of medicine, according to aliens, but is the main & effective and cheapest, and without out any side effects method.
May be they want to dilute the IIT system and it is another drive to make it ineffective. The expansion of the iit-type college is a good vision but the colleges selected for this doesn't seems to bear this vision. I'm surprised colleges like Zakir Hussain College of Engineering and Technology and College of Engineering and College of Technology, Osmania University- are considered for this. Most of the colleges are selected from WB and AP where congress has a govt and get supported at the center.
