Is it safe to go to IIT Jammu?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : July 15th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Yes, it's definitely safe to go to IIT Jammu, and has no relations with its neighboring city Kashmir whatsoever. Jammu will give you a sense of security and safety and make you feel at home. Operating under the mentorship of IIT Delhi, IIT Jammu has facilities and curriculum quite similar to IIT Delhi. Even the extreme climate you will experience here is like Delhi. Those who have safety concerns should know that the main cause of concern, Kashmir is located about 300+ km away. Whatever happens, there has no effect on the life of people in Jammu. I really hope the media clarifies this further by portraying the right image of Jammu. IIT Jammu is located in a serene location and the city Jammu is like any other north Indian city. You will find the locals here to be very hospitable and friendly. The culture is somewhat similar to Punjabis and the food here is great. So, denounce the general misconception and come and enjoy the beautiful life at IIT Jammu.

Is IIT Jammu safe for students?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : July 15th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

One of my friends has been living in Jammu for around 7 years and claims it to be one of the safest cities in India. Its reputation has been tainted because of its neighboring cities like Kashmir and Srinagar. Jammu has no links or influences of the violence that happens in these cities and the misleading media coverage makes people believe otherwise. 

Jammu is a very safe city even for females as the crime rate is very low here. You can walk around the campus or city and will never feel in danger or unsafe. However, not everyone can fit into the monotonous and simple life here and might feel homesick. But as for safety issues, there are none!

Should I go for NSIT IT or IIT Jammu Mechanical?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : August 24th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

No matter what anyone says, one cannot underestimate the value an IIT tag holds in shaping your career and opening doors of opportunities you did not know existed. You will have a certain confidence over non-IITians and you will thus strive everywhere you go. Moreover, the quality and number of recruiters an IIT attracts is unmatched. 

IT at NSUT Delhi won't do you much good because CSE has overtaken IT and is no longer the most coveted branch. The mechanical branch however still has its charm and will continue to do so in the future. So it's not advisable to join a branch that is losing its charm gradually. Here are some additional points to consider

  • The campus facilities are also better at IIT obviously because it's a government college. 
  • Students have access to the internet 24/7 which is not possible in NSUT Delhi. 
  • IIT Jammu has amazing sports facilities like a cricket net, football ground, badminton courts, basketball court, table tennis room, volleyball court, chess, and carrom. There is also a TV room with all HD channels, for recreation. 
  • Students are offered laundry services too. 
  • Several cultural and technical clubs like drama, dance, literature, art, music, coding, robotics, etc. promote extracurricular activities largely.

The above points might have convinced you to choose IIT Jammu over NSIT.

How do IIM and IIT students from Jammu (J & K) study in a conflict environment? Do their parents allow them to study there?

DA
Deepesh Agarwal Posted On : January 2nd, 2023
Former Marketing. (2018–2020)

Unlike the general misconception, Jammu is as safe as any other city in India. Only Kashmir is inflicted by riots and has a conflict environment. My sister had no doubts when she made the decision to pursue MBA from IIM Jammu. In fact, even our parents did not worry about her relentlessly. 

As a part, a little concern on their part is justified. But if the riots and conflicts are the reason your parents can rest assured as Jammu is a very safe city.

Moreover, IITs and IIMs are institutes of great national importance. Hence strict regulations are imposed to maintain safety within the campus.
