Parliamentary panel raised question on infrastructure development & faculty recruitment in second generation IITs
Monday, 18 December 2023 A Parliamentary panel report highlighted concerns regarding the allotment and transfer of land for new IITs. It noted that while land was allotted for four IITs, large portions were still pending possession for four others. The report also mentioned that 150 acres of land allotted to IIT-Gandhinagar was in unsuitable condition. Additionally, delays were observed in the construction of buildings and infrastructure in several IITs. The panel raised concerns about the site selection committee and the lack of due diligence in the process.
Rahul Gandhi expressed dismay during his third visit to Manipur since the outbreak of violence, lamenting the lack of improvement as the state remains divided. He highlighted the dire situation: houses burning, lives at risk, and thousands displaced to relief camps. Gandhi urged the Prime Minister to visit Manipur, hear firsthand the people's grievances, and advocate for peace. The Congress Party and INDIA are set to vigorously address Manipur's peace needs in Parliament, aiming to compel the government to act decisively and end the ongoing tragedy.

Elon Musk advised against using electronic voting machines (EVMs) due to hacking risks, sparking debates on their security amid irregularities in Puerto Rico's primaries. However, India defended its third-generation M3 EVMs as tamper-proof, with no connectivity and oversight from IIT experts and the Election Commission. The Supreme Court issued directives to further strengthen EVM security while rejecting demands for 100% VVPAT verification.
