In Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, a local voluntary organisation has intensified its demand for the establishment of an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) campus. Heading this movement is Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar First, spearheaded by Ritesh Mishra.
The region boasts 456 affiliated colleges, catering to more than 4 lakh students, alongside a substantial investment influx of almost Rs 1 lakh crore, anticipated to generate approximately 2 lakh jobs. However, the absence of an IIT institution prompts concerns over student migration out of the state.
The organisation emphasizes that an IIT in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar would significantly enhance local educational offerings, retaining meritorious students and bolstering the area's academic reputation.
