At the same time, the situation in 14 new institutes of IIT is worse. 5,100 students had registered in these. Out of which 2,040 (40%) could not get placement. IIT Kanpur alumnus and consultant Dheeraj Singh has shared this data on LinkedIn. Dheeraj has written that 33 percent of the students in IIT Kharagpur did not get a job through placement.

IIT-Delhi In the last 5 years, 22 percent of the students did not get a job. This number is said to be 40 percent in 2024. In response to RTI, it was revealed that 600 students remained unemployed in IIT Delhi in the last two years.
The mental condition of students is deteriorating due to this rush for placements. This year 6 IIT students have committed suicide.

These figures of the country’s top engineering institutes are quite worrying. Some solution and suggestion needs to be brought for this soon.
