Does IIT Gandhinagar administration regularly spy on their employees and students by reading emails stored on the official email server?

UP
Utkarsh Pal Posted On : April 5th, 2021
BTech from IIT Roorkee

Your concerns are absolutely true and on the morning of February 17 2016 surveillance took to new heights. A student named Bhumil Acharya had committed suicide and the administration deleted his emails without a delay and shut down the campus internet to halt the spread of the news. No one was questioned and students sent a request to the Director of IIT Gandhinagar to answer the allegations. The students were spied on and they registered their protest on the unjust elements of the practice.

  • Statements like these were issued by authorities- "In my country, everyone has the freedom of expression, except when they dissent”.
  • This pointed to the dictatorial mindset of the person analogous to expressions of those heading countries like North Korea and Saudi Arabia.
  • The faculty was trained to rush the issue with speedy explanations on why the internet was shut down.
  • It downplayed the significance of life itself and the expression of which had been extinguished by the suicide.

The institute tried to put up a false image with its pictures expressing students' joy or by highlighting trivial events on social media rather than the fact that they are waving a 'Goebbelsian propaganda' in confluence with the faculty, although it will ultimately prove to be destructive because the truth cannot remain hidden.

Shaurya Kumar Posted On : March 15th, 2024
Studied B.Tech in CSE from IIT Bhubaneswar

As a CSE student at IIT Bhubaneswar, you’ll require better performance and more specifications from a laptop. Some programming tasks and simulations are demanding. So buy a laptop that can handle the load well. CSE students mostly choose laptops that run Unix-based operating systems like Linux or macOS. 

These systems are better for coding and development tasks. Windows laptops are also a good choice as they are versatile, and support different development environments. Choose a lightweight and compact laptop for convenience. Also make sure to look for good battery life.

What is the procedure to change the branch after first year in IET Lucknow?

RB
Riya Bera Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studied at Calcutta University (2019)

One of the most important steps to change your branch would be scoring the highest in your first-year end semester. 

  • Before 2020, if you were able to obtain 77% or above then you would definitely have had a chance to change your branch to a better branch such as CS. 
  • Usually, students switched their branches from EI and Chemical to Computer Science, Mechanical or Electrical.
  • But now if your score is above 8.5 SGPA at the end of your first semester then you are highly likely to gain the opportunity of changing your branch. If a seat is empty for the category of your preferred branch. 
  • If you are the kind of student who studies every day with dedication and does not procrastinate until the exam comes, then it would be easy for you to score above 8.5 in your first year. 

Although branch change after the first year hardly takes place you can always give it a try and take a step closer to your goal.
