Your choice should depend on your own interests and preferences. Make the choice based on your own preferences. Consider factors like closeness to your home, Coaching/guidance for GRE and alumni network.

In my opinion, CSE in NIT Silchar is a better choice. 

Pros-

• The branch and the course itself are very popular and demanding. Will give you amazing results in the future.

• Campus placements are the best part of NIT Silchar.

• The infrastructure and facilities are top-notch

• The crowd here is qualitatively better hence the competition is also better

• Amazing extracurricular facilities 

• Silchar is well connected to major cities in India through rail and Air networks.

• The best feature of this college is its Start-up Centre which encourages entrepreneurship culture.

Cons-

• A little less developed than metropolitan cities

• You will lack the benefits of a popular title like IIT

NIT Silchar will help you realize your goals and be your constant support. Hence, rather than gaining mere tag benefits, you should focus on your career.

There is nothing such as a better college. It all depends on where you want to see yourself 10 years from now. But considering the current scenario, DTU is ahead of NIT Jalandhar. 

• Being located in the capital, the environment and culture at DTU are better. You will also get to avail better facilities here.

• You can prepare for TOFEL, CAT, UPSC for which the college institutes in Delhi are best.

Apart from this, the placement scenarios are equally good at both colleges. The only thing better at NIT Jalandhar is its tag.

Ranking-wise BIT Mesra is better than NIT Jalandhar. It has some other additional features also:

• BIT Mesra has Alumni in all the Top Universities around the globe

• BIT Mesra also has International campuses in Ras al khaimah and Bahrain

• It has the first rocketry department in India and has helped IITs to set up their rocketry department

• It also has a Super-Computer called PARAM 10000.

• BIT Mesra offers placements that are at par with the IITs

• Top recruiters include Facebook, Google, and Microsoft

• The grading system at BIT Mesra is absolute and the evaluation process is also very strict. So you will have to focus a lot on your CGPA.

This comparison is general. I think you should make a choice based on your own preferences. Consider factors like closeness to your home, Coaching/guidance for GRE, and alumni network.

Unlike the general opinion that NIT Jalandhar is better than Thapar University just because of its NIT title, I have a different opinion. I think Thapar University should get the recognition it deserves. Some points in favor of my opinion are:

• The CSE was renewed by Trinity College, Dublin. The curriculum is way more advanced than that of NIT Jalandhar. The latter has an outdated syllabus which is not relevant to the industry.

• Many technical societies help inculcate special skills.

• Placements for CSE are excellent at Thapar University.

• Coding culture is witnessing a spike over the few years. 1st year students are getting selected for GSOC

• The research culture at Thapar University is better than that of NIT Jalandhar where no one is interested in writing research papers at all.

• The infrastructure is also better at NIT Jalandhar.

• The location of Thapar University makes it easily accessible to restaurants, cinemas and other facilities.

• There are various coaching institutes in and around Thapar University for GRE/CAT/IAS/GMAT.

All these points clearly prove that Thapar University is better than NIT Jalandhar.
