They are certainly good so far as scoring great in entrance exam.It is after the entrance that only 20% excel while rest work for MNC to sell shampoos,mortgage or insurances
i think NM is getting old....like every old man,he is also thinking our age was the best, n current generation is worst.....if something reduce the quality of IITs it is only the reservation, rest all is great...
I think Narayan Murthy's comments are more valuable since his experience as an employer counts... afterall Infosys is one of the most leading companies which have gone global... maybe after reading Bhagat's comments it seems he lies in the remaining 80% of the IITians as per Murthy's comments... and hence he has opted into writing...
There are 3 types of students? merit based students,Reservation students and paying rich students.Naturally there will be difference among them?If you select students only on merit both by performance in 12th exam and the entrance exam,the students will be better?

If becoming author was his career objective why did chetan waste one engineering seat at IIT and one management seat at IIM.He could have joined St.Stephens English Honours and persued his vacation. He is guilty of wasting national resources like many other IIT'ans who sell soap,or fool around with stock market and trap innocent investors with cock and bull story.(As elaborated by Chetan in his book-2states-story of my marriage) Hypocracy thy name is chetan and the likes of him

Very well said Sir. Majority student waste IIT seat as they do not work in their core field. Even this year IIT topper said he want to pursue his career in finance, then for what enter into IIT n wasted one seat and above this wasted tax payer money, no body become enginner simply by paying some thousand money as a fee every citizen of india contributes to make them enginner,insteaded of inventing new technology people love to sell soap, shampoo and policies wearing suit n tie.

Banning reservations alsone is not going to help. Infact B.Tech courses should be discontinued in IITs and only M.Tech & Ph.D courses should be there in IITs. B.Tech courses are only campus placement centres for MNCs.
