Q:   Is National Institute of Technology, Srinagar a good college?
A:
Yes, it's a very good college for our under graduation and post-graduation also the infrastructure of the college was too good classrooms library, and hostel rooms and their maintenance was also too good. I think this college will develop more and more in future coming days also. Coming to the education system is the best thing I have ever expected it is the best source also and the professors in this college also are well graduated they have more than enough knowledge to teach us and they are very good in taking care of every student in the classroom which the most important gesture of a professor and which will help us to learn many more things in the college and they teach us more things which is very useful to do in our future projects like we do in our final year projects and the college support was awesome for any projects from the students I had a very special opinion in that because in recent days we have done a project in the college provided great help for us. Even some professors are with us until the completion of the project.

Reason for Early Winter Vacation in NIT Srinagar 

The decision to declare winter vacations came following an alleged blasphemous social media post against a particular religion by a non-local student. The protests were held by local students of NIT. They have made allegations that a non-local Hindu student posted a derogatory story on social media. 

Winter Vacation for Educational Institutions 

Earlier this week, the Directorate of School Education Kashmir (DSEK) announced winter vacations in a phased manner for educational institutions across the Kashmir Valley. The decision comes as a response to the prevailing severe cold conditions in the region and is designed to provide respite to both students and staff. The college authorities suspended the classes and sent the students home early to prevent the escalation of the protests.
