Second, the reservation policy.
IIT was established according to a bill of Congress and funded by the central government, which plays a vital role in technical personnel training and scientific research. To enter the Indian Institute of Technology, you must pass the annual entrance examination. About 300,000 candidates compete for 3,000 places every year.
Seven principals of Indian Institute of Technology clashed with the Minister of Human Resources Development on June 9, 2008, demanding that these schools reserve 65,438+05% enrollment places for students of various departments for specific castes, 7.5% for specific tribes and 27% for other vulnerable groups from the school year of September 2008.
