In Cuttack, Orissa there is a very famous and old college founded by britishers in 1889, the name is Ravenshaw College. It is a better college than rediff mentioned the colleges located in Delhi, Bombay and Chennai. Ravanshaw College is now turned in to a deemed university(Ravenshaw University). Because its in Orissa, rediff has neglected it. The education system in this college is high quality than the colleges mentioned by rediff
Only private and Christian managed colleges seems to have been studied. No Government/university colleges in every state seems to have been excluded. What glitters from outside may not be gold!!
It is interesting how Rediff couldn't find a single name from the glittering economics (considering only Arts) dept alumni including Prof. Amartya Sen to cite as famous alumni. All they could come with is a couple of politicians and an actor!

If they had mention one politician at least then Netaji should have been their first choice

Rediff is run by and mainly for Pg 3 people - hence their choice of alumnus names will be like that ..
