Gopal, Which batch you are from? Please don't spoil the name of IIT. It is idiots like you who are responsible for tarnishing the image of IIT. If you have to do the hate politics, do it but do not spoil the name that too by associating the name of my beloved institute.

Name-game brigade casts eye on IITs - Plan to replace Bombay & Madras labels CHARU SUDAN KASTURI New Delhi, Dec. 21: The whim that led Indian politicians to rename some of the country’s biggest cities may finally have caught the IITs in its grip.
India is planning to rename IIT Bombay and IIT Madras half a century after they were started, under amendments to the Indian Institute of Technology Act proposed by the UPA government.
If the amendments are approved by Parliament in their present state, the institutes will soon be called IIT Mumbai and IIT Chennai.

Right at the onset I want to make it very clear that change of name has nothing to do with politics This is nothing but change from wrong pronounciation by british to the right name ,named after goddess Mumbadevi. I shall not like to respond to those who are writing under nicknames by concealing their identity Also there is no point in responding to those using unparliamentary language Yes I did join IIT Mumbai in 1974 The entrance was through an entrance examination followed by an interview It was not by just showing mark sheet( I may add that I passed my graduation in chemical engineering from another well known institute in Mumbai viz UDCT (now UICT) Mumbai). When I was in IIT Mumbai emergency was declared in 1975 and IIT Mumbai came out with its own 20 point programme. IIT Mubai displayed big notices that ragging is an offence under emergency I am reminded of a famous quote, they were asked to bend and they chose to crawl. The great students of IIT Mumbai who indulged in ragging were then moving around like cowards with not a murmur against emergency .. I know for well friends that your great institution is known for ragging which is an offence under Indian Penal code and also for tremendous copying which is also an offence under IPC I shall suggest that IIT Mumbai apologise to the nation for supporting emenrgency and all those IITians who have indulged in ragging and copying ,apologise for the same to purify their souls when IIT is celebrating 50 years I know fact

Sure you must have been a real dumb student in M. Tech. That is why probably you were ragged so hard that even after 30 years you still crib about ragging. Also if you have so much problem with IIT, you could have left IIT. Instead you preferred to complete post graduation from there, get a nice job worked for 30 years an now probably you got some self confidence so you hid behind your computer and criticize an institute which at the first place was never made for a moron like you.

lol. I did some research on you. I was surprised how IIT can produce such an idiot. To my utter satisfaction, you did M Tech from IIT B (not B Tech) that too way back in 1975 when every Tom Dick and Harry got into IIT M Tech just by showing the Mark Sheet. Well at least now I hope that in 33 years since passing out you should get some lesson in life.

Dear Gopal Matka, Look who is talking about grace of IIT.l I will call you an idiot ten times even on your face. Indeed your mentality which divides people based upon region shows your mental level. Also on one hand you claim to have done engineering from a local college, at the same time you say you didn't take admission at IIT even though you got selected. How funny. People with as sick mentality as you really don't have IT factor to get into IIT and they will be frustated for their whole life. Dude get a life. You must be over 50 now, so live peacefully in your cave. No point in cribbing because you couldn't make into IIT 30 years back. And please do not ever criticize / politicize IIT. Mix your politics to your local unknown college, rename it to Raj Thackray college or whatever.
