No More IITs Petition - Comments 1100-1300

1106. Ayush-USA
It is not out of jealousy, its about mainting quality of education and students coming in To build IIT infrastructure in terms of labs and faculty takes decades and not 5 year term like govt in center

1109. ashwinkumarbv-india
Plea to Preserve the IIT Brand and Build Complementary Brands to Serve India

1116. Manoj Srinivasan-India/USA
Equivalence in quality to a 30th percentile IIT should be established before the changing of the names. If it takes 5-10 years, so be it.

1130.Dr.R.Ramarathnam, BTech IITM(1967),MTech IITB(1969),PhD IITB(1973)-India
No more IITs please. Build NITs as a separate brand.
For a country of India's size we could have multiple brands.

1154.sujay kumar-IITKGP INDIA
Stop this crime against humanity...STOP IT GODDAMNIT!

1155.Vidit Maheshwari-india
plzz. save the name of IIT, it is unique let be THE ONE

1161.Deepak-india
this is a crazy petition.. if we had 5 iits when we were 50 crores in population, we should have more than 10 when we are more than 100 crores in population.. juz because the givernments didnt act fast enough, u want the government not to act at all.. huh.. this is crazy.. i wud say, wot we really want is an IIT per state.. and the HIT idea seems to have stemmed out of sheer frsutration.. if they are to be given all status as IITs, why the hell dont u wanna label them as IITs??.. brand getting diluted is a lame excuse.. wot happened when roorkee and guwahati came into being.. did the brand lose any value... this petition is pucca crap.. and well, to sign off, i am a student @ IITM

1170.shwetambari-india
this should be stopped! Reputation of IIT is distorted due to this

1175.Vinay C Sushyant-India
These guys signing the petition are crap da. They are sh*& scared tht it will be tougher for their own future and dont give a sh@# abt their country, so much for the patriotism of these f@!@##s. They just drain the countries resources. I think all IITs shud be banned as i know what all happens in an IIT, as i am from CS batch of IITM

1186.Anshuman-India
I request you to kindly withdraw the naming of the aforesaid institutes as IITs

1193.A proud mother of an iitian -india
please dont destroy the Indian's pride becuase IIT's are only Indians pride.

1194.Pavan Nukala-India
Every Tom,Dick and Harry cannot be an Einstein .Enough of the dilution of IIT
standards.I can't bear it anymore

1196.Bhavesh-India
build another brand name.develop oppurtunities and infrastructure

1197.Mukesh Meena -India
Its good to promote higher education in India so that more and more students can get opportunity for higher studies...but y to name them IIT..name them nything...provide funds & facilities...and let them build their own name...may be 1 day they will get more name then iit...but y just create bulk....like govt did in state engg colleges

1200.Debashis Kar-India
All that make IITs the nation's pride will be obliterated once you make every other college an IIT And once this decision is taken it cannot be revoked. God help the future of this country

1204.Abhishek-India
i strongly agree with this petition. there is no point in making many institutes by same brand name just because that brand has great value in the world. if our ministers really want to create larger number of prolific engineers they should give them some other name with all supports they can to let them fight and feel the exhilaration of winning the world.

1215.Ratikant ghadai-India
I am from IITKGP. Yes, I believe declaring too many institutes as IITs will dilute the brand.

1217.nikhil prabhakar
there is a difference between an iitian and other colleges people and this is only because of deserving people of iit ...

1221.Ankit Singla-India
Very good effort, i am in...

1223.kiran karnati-India
What you have said is really high funda It should not be diluting brand names instead best educations and knowledge centres should be globalised

It could be iit's taking a step ahead in creating quality engineers and scientists across the country, as you have said interlinking should be really fine,slowly every one needs to think how to increase quality of education across the country,leadership could be given to iits, thing is healthier competion comes with healthier relationships,it should definetely not cut throat competions to build brand names, target should be quality education

1224.atul harkut-india
its unfortunate on part of those who had worked hard to get into IITs. it took 50 yrs for 7 IITs..hw can u have more than 7 in 5 yrs...its unfortunate

1231.Gurpreet Singh-India
Think carefully before taking any such step.Its the matter of nations honor

1232.Harsh Pensi-India
I sincerely think that formation of more IITs will result in dilution of the reputation as well as degradation of the intellectual capital coming out of the IITs on the whole. Instead the idea of HITs giving competition to IITs may prove to be more prolific.

1234.Ravi Kiran Bompelly-India
Yes, IIT brand should be preserverd

1237.samir kumar-india
we should not make more iit

1242.Shankar Ghosh-USA
Please Preserve the quality of Education that is identified by the IIT brand name.

1243.dev vaibhav-india
reputation bachao andolan

1245.prabhav kalaghatgi-india
iit rocks

1248.Krishna S.Kumar-USA
IITM B.Tech(Mech) 1982 Please give other institutions autonomy and money and set the targets for them to surpass IITs. That could be the only way to measure the challange the other institiutes give to the IITs

1252.abhinav jha-india
I fully support this petition Please dont kill the name of iit

1254.Manoj Sharma-Netherlands
Took a great vision, hardwork and many fruitful decisions to build a brand name, doesn't take more then a wrong decision to kill one. Making more IITians does not help. Making them better engineers will. If want to prevent brain drain, make great institutions for higher education. After all Harvard is not known for its undergraduate education. Get a vision.

1256.v.s.s.srinivas-INDIA
a very good proposition is made. this will enhance the standards of education in india ,preserve the brand name of iit and provide healthy competetion to iits

1263.Kumar Hemant-Germany-IIT-G 2005
Plz, don't dilute the brand IIT. In a country of 100 crores can't even we make more brand rather cheating with merely more IITs name. Indeed even IITs are going to be no more brand if more IITs are coming up like this. Let us make a whole new brand like National Univ of Sci & Tech & Med, but no more IITs. But renaming any institution doesn't make it that brand but indeed it will dilute the brand equity.
Renaming a donkey to horse won't serve the purpose.

1275.Sumit Kumar-India
Keep the brand name intact, if you can improve their level to IIT status, do it with
their name without putting IIT tag

1278.hemanth kumar-INDIA
I request the committee to look into the matter seriously. We urge for the respect of IITs in the world

1281.himanshu shekhar tulip-india
lets make a delegation of the big shot alumnus and meet the president , prime minster and the mhrd

1286.Shreekrishna-USA
Please do not spoil the name by making more IITS. can you think that the IIT standard is depleting and getting reduced. No faculty is coming these days labs are getting deterioated. In USA all the universities are trying to make themselves better and in India they r making just opposite. Please dont do this it will really spoil the brand name.

1287.Shadi Katyal-USA
We should not dilute the well established and respected all over Globe our present IIT as established by foresight of Prime Minister Nehru. It will be foolish to putall other institutes into this group. The credibility of such renowned institutes will be destroyed.One can call them Institutes of Engineering and Managmenent but not IIT. Why are we afarid of new name? This new name will also give them an impetus to compete them with IIT thus creating opportunities to flourish both groups.

1288.Sudha Narasimhachar-India
I agree. The bigger the size, the more difficult it is to strictly ensure uniform standards. Instead healthy competition is the best option

1299.Dr P Srinivasa-India
Keep IITs as IITs. Get another name for another Idea.
