Ragging is still prevalent in MANIT, and it is much more serious than any other college. Those who claim that it is a zero ragging campus, consider ragging to be limited to physical assault. However, ragging includes all kinds of mistreatments and harassment.

The culture of fundas is a clear example of ragging on campus. One has to address the senior in a particular manner, and speak a lot of unnecessary things. If one doesn’t follow these fundas, there are serious consequences to it. 

Roaming around the campus post class hours results in thrashing. The seniors verbally abuse and challenge freshers, even in front of security guards and professors. As a result of this culture, freshers are completely isolated from seniors. 

It is hard to believe that such practices are prevalent in an Institute of National Importance. Some serious actions are needed to curb these harsh practices in MANIT Bhopal.

I don't think there is a single useless branch at NIT Rourkela or at any institute. The diverse branches aim at catering to the needs of all kinds of students. So a branch that is useless for you might be useful for someone else and vice versa. Moreover, if a branch seems to be useless then it's because its students are not passionate enough to make the most out of it. Comparing branches can also result in this preconceived notion of a rank being inferior to the other. 

It's always better to find solutions than to complain. Rather than declaring a specific branch to be useless, we should identify its weaknesses and work on them for instance, one of my friends found his branch to be below average and he along with his batchmates used to sit and single out companies that could hire them they even talked to the professors regarding the changes that coil be made in the curriculum to make the course more appealing and informative.

I believe once you start focusing on gaining knowledge rather than earning money, you won't find a single branch useless. Yes, a branch can provide lesser job opportunities than other branches but that does not make it useless.

One of my friends was in a similar dilemma when he got both NIT Silchar and NIT Agartala. Since both the colleges are located in the North-East, many relatives and adults advised him to look for another institute. He decided to contact a senior and after a healthy discussion with a 4th year senior at NT Agartala, he decided to join the college.

Most of his batchmates are from Bihar and UP. A few are from Bhopal and Kolkata too. Around 30 to 50 students in every branch are from the South. The locals are very friendly and outgoing.

Today, he feels proud to be a part of North-Eastern College despite being from UP. He got the opportunity to experience diverse cultures and traditions. Moreover, the place is the perfect getaway from the scorching summer heat. The infrastructure is infused with natural beauty and makes the ambiance serene. 

Overall, Agartala is a very peaceful place and has a huge non-North-Eastern intake so your security isn’t a big concern here.
