NIT Delhi

My joy was out of bounds when I came to know that an NIT the erstwhile REC has come up in Delhi and feel almost instantly that in Delhi there is some station or domain which I can associate myself with and in some way call my own. The Government is pro-active and rightly so in the manner in which it is going about these institutions and setting them up and hand-holding them one by one into a successful orbit.

NIT Warangal

NIT Delhi seems to have operated from NIT Warangal for nearly two years and now has a make-shift campus in New Delhi and a new campus is underway. May be the Government and all concerned agencies must expedite matters and ensure that a colossal and astounding and redoubtable NIT comes at Delhi to which other NIT's can look to for inputs and verve. Instantly I see cities like Mangalore; Tiruchi and Calicut where these institutions first came up and in many cases in rustic back-drops almost instantly riding piggy-back on the glory of Delhi and what it stands for.

There are many advantages for an NIT  from NIT Delhi. Firstly this NIT is attached more closer to the seats of power and governmental decision making. NIT Delhi would instantly act as a conduit between IIT Delhi and other NIT's in the country thereby leveraging on the framework of other IIT's in general and more than anything it adds to the prestige of the REC movement created by the founders of this country.

May the Delhi government in all its wisdom create the best of building designs and facility lay-outs for NIT Delhi as the heart of NIT's is slowly shifting to Delhi for sure and is destined to pump pomp and motivation to all  other NIT's in the country.

I only hope the Government of India  make more purposeful use of the students who have passed out from these institutes past and present and especially the past ones who lived in a society that was truly a mini India with all its trials and tribulations.
