If you are trying to decide between BIT Sindri and KIIT for pursuing CSE or IT, here are a few things to consider before making your final decision:

Faculty: Both colleges have average faculty members, which means that your overall learning experience will depend on your own interest and effort in learning coding and other concepts related to computer science.
Exposure and Facilities: KIIT offers better exposure to modern facilities and resources in terms of labs, while BIT Sindri may lack in this aspect. However, you can still get decent exposure at BIT Sindri if you are proactive in seeking out opportunities for learning.
Placements: In terms of placements, both colleges offer opportunities to get placed in software companies such as TCS, Wipro, Accenture, and IBM. However, KIIT may have a slight edge in this aspect, as you can sit for multiple placement sessions and decide which company to join.
Fees: The major difference between BIT Sindri and KIIT is the fees. While BIT Sindri charges a relatively low fee of 90,000 for four years, KIIT charges significantly more (12 to 15 times more).
Core companies: If you are interested in core companies in ECE or EEE, BIT Sindri may offer better opportunities compared to KIIT.

Both colleges have their pros and cons, you should weigh the above factors carefully before making a decision. Ultimately, the quality of your learning experience and your career prospects will depend on your own initiative and effort in pursuing your interests in the field of computer science.

One of my brothers is in BIT Sindri so I might be able to answer your question. Let us discuss the pros and cons of BIT Sindri to understand the college a little better.

Pros of joining BIT Sindri:

BIT Sindri is a government college and many companies choose government colleges for placements.
Good placements, various companies visit campuses such as TATA, ABG companies, IT companies, and other core companies.
The college has a Hi-tech lab facility for EE which is one of a kind in Asia.
Metallurgy and mining branch option available and most students from mining got placements in CIL
The faculty is very friendly and the alumni base is the best in every field.
Regarding the college, it is spread over 400 acres with separate hostels for every branch and that too for each year. Altogether more than 20 hostels. There is a central library on campus which has almost everything.

Cons of joining BIT Sindri:

BIT has students only from Jharkhand and Bihar, so, high interaction coefficient.
EE is a more popular course here than IT and CS.

So, if money is not a factor for you, you can opt for IT CS and go for KIIT, but if you like EE or ECE go for BIT.

My brother scored 121 in the general category in BIT and 243 in the general category in the KIIT entrance exam. He chose EE in BIT and did not regret it later. KIIT is very expensive.

Remember that before selecting a college, consider what you want to do after four years — is it an MBA, a job in a core company, or IT — and then choose from the options.
