Why are majority of students at NIT Warangal not focused on getting a "full education"?

Most of the students opt for engineering to satisfy society and their families. And some of them select the course only to get placed in a big company with a high salary. This is the bitter reality for every engineering student. In our country, children are not given a chance to follow their passion; instead, they act as machines for the happiness of the family. This forces them to choose engineering, and finally, they end up jobless. This problem can be resolved only by giving proper career guidance to the parents.
