The IIT Dhanbad

With the numerous interminable discussions for the name change going in the ISM Dhanbad online communities, now apparently some sanguine thing has came out where everybody (students, teachers, alumnus) understand the urgency of ISM to IIT conversion. (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/4907738.cms ).


Definitely the consensus has came out late , at a time when the government has already setup 6 new IITs and has granted the IIT status to IT-BHU, but again I will take the help of the aphorisms “It’s better to be late than never.” & “In the middle of difficulty lies the opportunity” to inspire myself and other concerned parties.

With around 90 years history of providing the quality technical education, the infrastructure it possesses and the level of entrants,I believe the ISM is lone in the race of becoming an IIT. Hence it shouldn’t be an act of nepotism if the readers please spent some time in filling out this petition.

Dear friends ,let’s strive, fight and pray hard to see a dawn when we find out written “Indian Institute of Technology Dhanbad” at the fringes of ISM campus.
- Amen
