A close friend of mine is currently pursuing an integrated program at JNTU and is not at all pleased with its standard of education. He stated a few points that clarified his stance further

• Majority of the subjects are taught by lecturers and not the actual professors. They have no interest in teaching and teach only a handful of subjects and leave the rest to untrained and underqualified lecturers.
• Introduction of new courses like IDP, IDDMP, IIDDMP is greatly affecting the quality of education. The high batch size affects the student-teacher ratio and the limited resources cannot be availed by everyone.
• JNTU  5-year course placements are very poor. CBIT has better companies than JNTU that offer better packages and opportunities.
• JNTU has a better location than CBIT which is in a remote location and has limited outside life. 
• JNTU has no transport facilities so this might be a major obstacle throughout your program.

In all, I would suggest you go for CBIT as it seems to be in a better position than JNTU both in terms of placements as well as quality of education.

IIT Dhanbad is one of the top engineering institutions in India, and as such, its students face a number of challenges. Some of the most common problems include:

• The students are not provided with 24/7 Internet faculty and even the LAN connections are limited to a fixed time duration.
• The students of the Earth Science branch are given more preference and they are sent for training expeditions and industrial exposure. 
• IIT Dhanbad has a reputation but only as ISM, its former name. Rarely do the recruiters and students know that ISM has been converted to IIT Dhanbad.
• There is no inter-departmental and interdepartmental coordination. Academics, institutional administration, and hostel administration behave as if they are three totally unrelated bodies. If you want to report a problem, you will just be referred by someone to somebody else and yes, this vicious cycle continues.
• The classrooms are not well-equipped and lack facilities like air conditioning and projectors.
• Most teaching assistants lack experience and knowledge of their fields. Moreover, they have no interest in helping the students. 
• The juniors are dominated by the seniors and a few cases of ragging might also occur.
• Students are asked to dress according to the college rules which are very illogical.

It's important to keep in mind that these are just general challenges and that individual experiences may vary.

NIT Agartala is definitely not the best engineering college in India but its Engineering branch is certainly the best in the institute. 

• The faculty pool comprises both extremely talented as well as young and passionate professors. Faculties are an amazing combination of experience and.
• The department conducts regular workshops and seminars on the recent trends in the industry.
• Most of the classroom sessions are interesting and knowledgeable unlike other departments 
• The EE syllabus is very elaborate so it’s one of the most challenging branches with a maximum workload 
• Companies like Infosys and IBM visit the college for mass recruitment. Students are also placed in companies like ABB, Johnson Controls, Havells, Vedanta, L&T and others. Core placements are rare. 

So, NIT Agartala Electrical Engineering is a decent choice if you are interested in the field genuinely.

Yes, it's advisable to learn a coding language before being admitted to IIIT Delhi although it's not completely necessary. IIIT Delhi organizes some coding sessions during the orientation for people with non-CS backgrounds. If you have no knowledge of coding, you don't have to worry much because many non-CS students have launched successful startups. All you need is the determination to work hard and interest to learn new things. 

If you are adamant about learning a programming language, choose Python. You will be introduced to the world of programming through this and get excellent exposure too.
