IITian are THE JANISSARIES, THE "STOLEN HINDU CHILDREN"
Most of the IIT graduates are going abroad after graduation, never to return to India. More IITs are being planned and it means more brain drain. India loses about Rs 2 billion per year because of the brain drain according to an UNDP report. India is subsidizing the training of the top-level manpower of the developed nations. What India needs is the quality engineers opting for the national development by taking up jobs in India, which is now filled by low quality engineers as evidenced by the quality of works we see all around.
Take the case of doctors; they are not available for patients in the villages. We made various types of entrance tests to select students for the professional courses, which were not there earlier. This has produced a tutorial and coaching centre racket, which helps some coaching institutions making good money out of the gullible parents. The commercialization racket has hit the roof with coaching centers with admission test, so that children can appear for better coaching centre entrance tests, so that they can appear for the entrance test of IIT!.
From 8th standard, onwards students and parents are subjected to the coaching torture in a craze to get admitted to IIT for a good future in USA. Do we need this? The syllabus for the entrance tests is based on degree level subjects, which is a criminal fraud on the students. Test them on what they study up to 12th and evaluate them psychologically before admitting them to professional college. Even the EAMCET should be dispensed with and children should be selected on the basis of the intermediate results. Unfortunately our education system is taken over by Coaching Class Mafia. These coaching centers cover intermediate syllabus in 3 months and the rest of the time is spent on coaching the degree syllabus for these entrance tests. Some of the junior colleges cum coaching centers are run in dingy rooms, and some are even located over vehicle service centers, where the students had to breathe petrol and vehicle exhaust for many hours.
Studying in an IIT is not all that pleasant. I was not surprised by the news that in Bombay an IIT student had committed suicide because of the stress sometime back. Highly qualified teaching staff who does not know teaching, and poor facilities and extreme overload, classes from morning till late in the night, compulsory NSS, NCC, sports activities etc, very poor accommodation, low quality food etc add to this stress. What I had seen in one of the IIT was eye opening. About 500 students stay in a hostel. They didn’t have a water heater for the bathroom, or water cooler for drinking cold water, no internet facility in the rooms, and not a single washing machine for washing clothes. The students take back the cloth to their hometown for washing, while coming on a two or three day holidays. It was not surprising that the nurses in some IITs have complained of extreme smell from the students that they hate to give injections to them when required. Food given in some messes is worse than the food in the cheap Udupi restaurants in Mumbai and contains no fresh vegetables or proteins. Few years back there was a breakout of Cholera in one of the hostel and this year there were worms in the food in another hostel. Once in a week chicken given at extra cost is colored with the boot polish color that one will abhor to eat. Just 15 computers for the students in the library and internet surfing is a difficult issue for the students. Projects are dumped on students without proper guidance, and students have to get help from parents to complete it. Workshops have very old tools and students are not provided with protective gear.
IIT is an asset stripping government establishment which is useful for the Western Nations. IIT is another form of stamp paper scam that is eating in to our national resource. It is time to privatize and those who study in the IIT should be made to pay a reasonable fee and then let the students go anywhere in the world. IIT was never useful for our nuclear programme, space programme or agricultural programme. My rough estimate is that India lost about Rs 200,000 crores in terms of investment and expenditure and those who are sending their children to IIT is dreaming of a better tomorrow for them in the US. There is nothing very special about the professors teaching there as most of them tried to get out of teaching professions in IITs but failed and had to continue in teaching. The success of IIT is the methodology of teaching and studies by the students themselves who are highly motivated. . I had seen that some of the IITs have poor facilities, poor hostel facilities and very poor quality food. After half a century of government control, the students are no more treated as customers of these institutions.
The senior-most faculty receives less than $ 700 a month, while 35 percent of the extra revenue they earn from consultancy projects goes to the IITs. Outside India, they could earn four to twelve times this amount. So IITs are having trouble in finding qualified candidates to fill the void left by retiring faculty throughout its branches in Delhi, Bombay, Madras, and elsewhere. Added to this the student population has increased 45 percent in the last eight years. If one asks any student they will tell you that the available highly qualified research oriented faculty tends to be very poor in teaching. This results in added stress to the students in the IITs. According to a McKinsey study the number of patents the typical IIT was granted in 1996-97 fell way behind those of Stanford Engineering and MIT Engineering, as did the number of faculty citations received for 1993-98
IITs that are not useful for India but is hailed as great institutions by the West. The West is not only getting the highly intelligent Indian but also highly talented future generations. This has prompted Canada to attract highly educated Asians promising jobs in Canada matching their professional qualifications. But these Asians never get the promised jobs and after working for decades in ordinary non professional jobs these immigrants have found out that what Canada is looking for is the next generation of intelligent Canadians.
.
Added to this, IITs being government establishments have developed deep roots and does not consider the students as their customers. I observed that the students cannot sit in the chairs in the open air theatre, but have to sit on the cement steps while professors and workers along with their families enjoy the comfort of the chair. The chairs are reserved only for the staff and their families who are not expected to use the student facilities. Normally the facilities are meant for the students and the teaching; staff can go out and see films of their choice at theatres. . In many IITs, staff and their families and visitors have become the customers of the institution instead of the students.
IIT does not fit with India’s developments. When Nehru inaugurated the IIT Kharagpur in 1953 it was hoped that IITs would aid India’s development but it ended up enriching the global economy using our capital investment and other resources including efforts of parents, which could be more than $500 billion. Grants to IITs have shown a five-fold increase from Rs.51.75 crore in 1997-98, to Rs.224.75 crore during 2002-03. Non-plan funding also more than doubled from Rs.172.76 crore to Rs.449.02 crore during the same period. All this goes to the benefit of the west. In January 2003 some 25000 alumni of the IITians celebrated the 50th anniversary of their alma mater in Silicon Valley. Naturally Bill Gates, in his keynote speech said that IITs are incredible institutions and also that the US computer industry has benefited greatly. Not a single IITian appeared for selection interviews in the seventies and eighties for our Nuclear and space research centers. We are training our best brains for the benefit of US and other developed countries. Politicians like Naidu have no idea of what is happening and consequently the tuition mafia sponsored idea of IIT is swallowed by him. We should remember that the placement itself from IIT is just 50%. This is reflected in many IITians writing for IPS, IAS etc. The total unreserved seats from all IITs put together for the Communication and Electronics engineering subject, which is the most sought after is just 27 seats. (This data is available on the booklet given to each successful candidate. This information is about one or two years old.) Yet all are trying for a seat in any branch is only for an IIT label which is a meal ticket to go abroad. I had seen that all want to escape the misery called India and I can’t blame them as I was also one who left this misery after a dozen years in the low paid Class I service in one of the topnotch research establishment in India. This type of brain drain has resulted in the present pitiable leadership problems in all areas of administration in India. So we have in our top positions thieves and jokers like Laloo and an imported Italian Lady with scant knowledge of India controlling all these political buffoons.
India had undergone the biggest industrial accident at Bhopal in 1984 unparalleled in the human history. About 8000 people died in the immediate aftermath of the disaster. Death toll has risen to over 20,000 and still climbing at the rate of a person per day from exposure related diseases resulting from using highly contaminated drinking water around a 5 mile area. The Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Arjun Singh of the congress party, where the accident occurred was on the payroll of the Union Carbide and was seen using the Union carbide facilities for his own use. The result was a drama in which Union Carbide paid the politicians without paying even the rudimentary compensation. Union Carbide paid one seventh of an amount of compensation conveniently estimated by our people, and that too without any obligation. The abandoned factory site contains hazardous chemicals spread all around and is not yet cleaned up. The compensation itself has not fully reached the public till date. Various water analysis reports are filed under official secrets act. This is what happens when out good fellows go out of India and even work for companies like Union Carbide in USA. In return from these US firms we get defectively designed dangerous plants which are operated in India with bypassing safety features. Things would have been different if we had designed the plant and constructed it. An example of how an unsafe installation was made safe by our own design, fabrication, installation, testing and commssioning in a more dangerous installation in Bombay is given here. The Canada India CIRUS reactor in Bombay when it was commissioned in 1960 did not have provisions to clean up the gases that could be generated in case of a maximum credible accident. Decades have passed by the time such a unit was installed for the reactor. Imagine what would have happened to the Bombay population if for some unforeseen reason, a serious accident occurred in the reactor and if so it would have been an evacuation of the Bombay city itself.
I will tell a historical analogy about loosing the best sons of the soil. In the 13th Century, Islamic force led by one Osman known in the west as. the Ottomans began violent aggression towards the Christian outposts in Asia. By 1439, Serbia was formally annexed to the Ottoman Empire. The non-White Ottoman muslim army kept their fighting strength up was through a unit of foreign soldiers known as the Janissaries. the Ottoman muslim leader, Emir Orkhan (1326 – 1359), ordered the conquered European christians in the Balkans that they must hand over to the Ottomans 1,000 White male babies "with faces white and shining" each and every year. The youths were brought before the Ottoman sultan, and the best of them - in terms of physique, intelligence, and other qualities - were selected for education in the palace school. There they converted to Islam, became versed in the Islamic religion and its culture, learned Ottoman Turkish, Persian, and Arabic, and were compelled to serve the Ottomans, with their origins being concealed from them. They became the best and most trusted armed unit within the Ottoman Empire- a supreme act of irony. This yearly tribute was continued for an astonishing 300 years until 1648, during which time not only were 300,000 White christians were absorbed into the muslim Ottoman hierarchy and in to the elite Turkish genetic pool. The Janissaries became known as one of the most efficient army of soldiers in the world and they were used to conquer the christian Europe. I think role of IITians is similar to Janissaries.
THE JANISSARIES who are THE "STOLEN WHITE CHRISTIAN CHILDREN" BECAME THE OTTOMAN ELITE. In this way hundreds of thousands of Whites entered the modern Turkish gene pool - and the Turks were already a largely mixed race themselves. The Janissaries were finally disbanded in 1826. It is another irony of the history that a young army officer named Kemal Ataturk, who was a descendant of one of the Janissaries, with blue eyes and blond hair seized the power abolishing the Ottoman dynasty in 1919 and declaring the Republic of Turkey in 1923. . In 1934, the national parliament gave him the name "Atatürk" (Father of the Turks). .During his 15 years of rule he banned the skull cap of muslims, banned religious attire in public. gave equal rights to women, changed the Arabic alphabet, banned the activities of muslim religious sects, abolished the Caliphship. He introduced Western calendar, International numeric system, Metric system etc. Allah Akbar (Arabic for God is Great!) was replaced with Turkish words "Tanri Uludur!” Because he has abolished the caliphate, which the Ottoman sultanate had held for centuries and for the first time in Islamic history, no ruler claimed the spiritual leadership of Islam
While Turkey was moving towards modern era, in India, muslims supported by the fool Gandhi started the Khilafat movement for the Caliphate This had eventually led the barbaric and fundamentalist Indian muslims to riot in Kerala and thousands of Hindus were butchered, converted by force to islam in what is known as Moppila Lahala. The Kerala muslims even put up a Caliphate king and the scars of this are still vivid among the Keralaites.
So after some three centuries our IITians will convert the violent and terrorist USA to a peaceful nation like what the Ataturk did for Turkey.
