Nagpur, The engineer's town


I was in Nagpur to visit my sis-in-law. She is a 2nd year engineering student. I spend a weekend there with Gouri my sis-in-law and her friends the would be engineers of India and the world. There are around 80 engineering colleges in Nagpur and its surrounding. Every year the number is growing and even existing colleges are hosting another one in their campus. This is a good business in the name of education. Due to Gouri I got the opportunity to visit her college in Nagpur. The place where the college is located is surrounded by many other similar engineering, nursing, medical, etc colleges. So it is a so-called township of colleges and their hostels. The campus I have visited was beautiful and big. They have good facilities for students like computer lab, library etc. I talked with many faculties, they seems to be very enthusiastic too. As a whole Nagpur is a global village working very hard to supply educated labors to the world market. I have no complain about this, because this one of the many industries running in India without taking any grant from Indian government but producing bunch of people who will give large amount of tax to our government. This is only win-win situation for India.

Very nice comments on todays one of the fastest growing economies in the world. To make progress and then to retain that progress are the two strong challenges for Indians of today. I hope very positively that India will be able to conquer both the challenges in coming years.
