Jagdeep Dhankhar today called upon the youth to decimate & neutralise the false narrative being peddled by certain forces to taint and tarnish the image of Bharat and its institutions. Interacting with the faculty & students at IIT Delhi today, the Vice-President expressed his anguish over the narrative being floated that IITs are catering to those, who are in the upper class. “IITs, I know for sure, people from the village come, people from humble backgrounds come, people who have made it with great difficulty, but a different impression is sold to the outside world,” he said while adding that each student who gets admission to these prestigious institutions does so based on merit and merit alone.
Shri Dhankhar further said that “For some strange reason, our growth is in digestible to some. Some people can go to the extent and say that Pakistan has a better Hunger Index than India. Imagine how far they can go. They have some problems which Institutions like IIT must solve to find out why the digestive system is so repulsive to the growth of this country, something has to be done.
