To Respected HRD Ministry 

Mrs. Smriti Irani

First of all many many congratulations for holding the office of the HRD ministry of our country. Every citizen is looking with lot of hopes towards the new Govt. and specially towards you because education ministry is the backbone of the country's future growth. 

Obviously Degree or qualification is not really a measurement of the intellectual power of a leader. I fully believe on that and I have seen a very good orator and leader in you through your speeches.

I would like to draw your attention towards your recent decision about opening new 8 IITs which was also done by former HRD minister Kapil Sibbal as well. Old IITs opened by Kapil ji still have severe shortage of faculty and infrastructure and students in many of them still taking classes in nearby Universities. We should first build existing one on same standard and increase standard of other existing Govt colleges.

If We really need more IITs then Why can't our HRD just upgrade some of the well established reputed colleges of NITs, IIITs or DCE etc which has good proven record with good infrastructure and labs.

In-fact HRD ministry must set a benchmark or some standard qualifications for a college to be eligible to be an IIT. Naming a college just IIT will only downgrade IIT's status. 

Why to dilute the brand if we can't open world standard colleges?

This is just my suggestion, Please give it a thought and i hope HRD will take wise decision in this case which will help our country as well as will maintain the worldwide reputation of the country's education standard.
