Is the number of IIT's degrading the IIT BRAND name?

People get used to privilege. In any society once you get a taste of privileged treatment it is so difficult to give it up, give it away or even share it. It does not seem strange to me that we now try to maintain our privilege at the tax payers expense.

So now I ask :
Is the number if smart people in India declining?
1981 - 640 million
1991 - 840 million
2008 - 1130 million
This is nearly a 75% increase in the number of "smart" people eligible to get admission into IIT.
So is the increase in number of seats in IIT such a bad option?
With so much talent in our country , a population of over one billion, 7 IIT's are not enough.

Let us not forget that in every nation it is the duty of the government to create infrastructure that reaches the masses and not to harbor elitism.
Dedicated to the service of the nation , not to an elite 1 %.

IIT's were never meant to be high IQ societies where only the "divinely

gifted were supposed to enter. IIT's were opened to provide high quality engineers to support the economic and social development of our country.

OBVIOUSLY THE MORE INTELLIGENT SHOULD BE PREFERED,

But at the cost of a nation's development?

IIT REFORMS == hara-kiri

Draconian quotas have cast doubt on the ability of the country’s leading universities to compete with the best in the world.
• Daily Telegraph, London


27%reservation for students.....
50%reservation for students....
3 New IIT's
5 New IIT's
50% for faculty also.....
A 100% fee hike...

These are the moves that the Govt has made to make IIT a world class institute which will pave the path for India's growth.

IIT's , as we see today, would not have come up had merit not been the sole criterion. Is the country ready to witness all these fruits of hard labour go to waste by becoming a victim to political opportunism? The OBC category is a fuzzy set and only the creamy layer becomes thicker and thicker leaving behind the poor in all categories.

As the county moves towards a knowledge economy, excellence is to be nurtured more than anything else. Moreover, the history of the country for the last six decades has proved that excellence is NOT the monopoly of any caste or religion.

This is also evident in all the central institutions of higher education and research. For the first time after Independence, India has the chance of excelling with a huge mass of young talent pool. To squander this golden opportunity now is sheer intellectual hara-kiri.

The worst part is that we havn't been able to anything to prevent the destruction of our own institute.

DEDICATED TO THE SERVICE OF THE NATION

TAJ MAHAL - The most beautiful thing i have ever seen in my life

What is the most beautiful monument/place/thing in the world?

Is it the Effiel Tower , great dome , Big Ben , Leaning Tower of Pisa , Paris Museum .....
ETC???

Or is the scintillating white wonder of the world

TAJ MAHAL

It is so beautiful!

I have seen most of the wonders of the world but none has ever raptured me on so much.
Never has it struck to me that one monument of the world can make you feel so wonderful that even the anger , pain , frustration , aungish and all just POOF
.....disappear....

It is just so beautiful that I dont have words for it.

DRUNk???

What does being drunk mean??

Drunkenness is the state of being intoxicated by consumption of alcoholic beverages to a degree that mental and physical faculties are noticeably impaired.

So when we drink do we not realize who we are , what our true abilities are ??
WHat we can do and what we should not do??

Does ones eyes hurt??
does the head seem to be floating with a general elevation sensation??

Do we start to notice the seemingly harness actions of oneself??

DOes pain disappear??

DO we elevate from the mortal sense of earth??

Do we temporarily transcend the basic laws of sense and realisation??

Are we unable to do things which every normal person can do in normal sense??

Do we do stupid stuff??

Do we write blogs in the middle of night??

STUPID POLITICS

India's most reputed and arguably one of the worlds best engineering college , Indian Institute of Technology , commonly know as as IIT are considered every aspiring engineers dream college.

They work day and night, burning the mid-night oil , sacrificing all their other pleasures for 2 to 3 years and dedicating a part of their life in an attempt to clear the IIT-JEE exam.

In 11th and 12th when most of their friends are off partying all night long they study in the hope that they would reap even sweeter fruits in the long run.

The pressure their parents put on the very fact that IIT selection makes or brakes your career.

Forget my earlier criticism of the IIT system and no difference of the IIT'ians from the rest of the engineering students.

We may not be gifted with super human capabalities but one thing which we do have is determination.

We have toiled so hard for it and ....................

RESERVEATION ON CASTE BASIS
RESERVATION IN FACUTLY

What is happening?

Is all that the government cares for is re winning the election or pleasing the majority voters at the cost of the nation.

If anyone reads my post who can justify this.
PLEASE FOR GOD'S SAKE EXPLAIN TO ME

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING???????

Some of the finest people have given up top positions and fat cheques that were offered to them in other parts of the world to come and teach in the IITs, despite the low pay scale that the government offers. With reservation in faculty positions, I see a day, not far from now, when the IITs will crumble

Merit on which brand IIT rests, would be shaken by the decision of the government.


GOD SAVE US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and I am atheistic

MY FAV SONG

"Me Against The World"
BY 2PAC
(feat. Dramacydal)

[2Pac]
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Oooohhh, oooohhh
[2Pac]
Nuttin to lose..
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Oahhhh, oahhhahh
[2Pac]
I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Oh-hahhh
[2Pac]
Stuck in the game
Me against the world baby

[Verse One: 2Pac]

Can you picture my prophecy?
Stress in the city, the cops is hot for me
The projects is full of bullets, the bodies is droppin
There ain't no stoppin me
Constantly movin while makin millions
Witnessin killings, leavin dead bodies in abandoned buildings
Carries to children cause they're illin
Addicted to killin and the appeal from the cap peelin
Without feelin, but will they last or be blasted?
Hard headed bastard
Maybe he'll listen in his casket -- the aftermath
More bodies being buried -- I'm losing my homies in a hurry
They're relocating to the cemetary
Got me worried, stressin, my vision's blurried
The question is will I live? No one in the world loves me
I'm headed for danger, don't trust strangers
Put one in the chamber whenever I'm feelin this anger
Don't wanna make excuses, cause this is how it is
What's the use unless we're shootin no one notices the youth
It's just me against the world baby

[girl]
Me against the world
[2Pac]
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Ooooh yeah, ooo-hooo
[2Pac]
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Me against the world
[2Pac]
Cause it's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Hey!!
[2Pac]
Me against the world
[girl]
Ooooh yeah
[2Pac]
I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
I got nothing to lose

[Verse Two: Dramacydal]

Could somebody help me? I'm out here all by myself
See ladies in stores, Baby Capone's, livin wealthy
Pictures of my birth on this Earth is what I'm dreamin
Seein Daddy's semen, full of crooked demons, already crazy
and screamin I guess them nightmares as a child
had me scared, but left me prepared for a while
Is there another route? For a crooked Outlaw
Veteran, a villian, a young thug, who one day shall fall

Everday there's mo' death, and plus I'm dough-less
I'm seein mo' reasons for me to proceed with thievin
Scheme on the scheming and leave they peeps grieving
Cause ain't no bucks to stack up, my nuts is backed up
I'm bout to act up, go load the Mac up, now watch me klacka
Tried makin fat cuts, but yo it ain't workin
And Evil's lurking, I can see him smirking
when I gets to pervin, so what?
Go put some work in, and make my mail, makin sales
Risking 25 with a 'L', but oh well

[girl]
Me against the world
[2Pac]
With nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Ooh yeah.. oooh-ooooh
[2Pac]
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Me against the world
[2Pac]
I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Oahhhohh
[2Pac]
Ha ha
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Ha-ahh, HA-AHH!
[2Pac]
With nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Me against the world, hoahhh
[2Pac]
Me against the world
I got nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Ha-hahh (hehe) heyy!

[Verse Three: 2Pac]

With all this extra stressin
The question I wonder is after death, after my last breath
When will I finaly get to rest? Through this supression
they punish the people that's askin questions
And those that possess, steal from the ones without possesions
The message I stress: to make it stop study your lessons
Don't settle for less - even the genius asks-es questions
Be grateful for blessings
Don't ever change, keep your essence
The power is in the people and politics we address
Always do your best, don't let the pressure make you panic
And when you get stranded
And things don't go the way you planned it
Dreamin of riches, in a position of makin a difference
Politicians and hypocrites, they don't wanna listen
If I'm insane, it's the fame made a brother change
It wasn't nuttin like the game
It's just me against the world

[girl]
Me against the world
[2Pac]
Nuttin to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Me against the world
[2Pac]
Got me stuck in the game
It's just me against the world
[girl]
Oahahhhh
[2Pac]
I'd be ashamed to lose
It's just me against the world baby
[girl]
Me against the world

[Outro: 2Pac]

Heh, hahahahahahah
That's right
I know it seem hard sometimes but uhh
Remember one thing
Through every dark night, there's a bright day after that
So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out
Keep your head up, and handle it

[girl]
Me against the world [3X]
