Dear Kartik,
You can opt for some of the good private universities like Lovely, SRM, VIT etc. Offering various specializations in B.Tech like ECE, CSE, EE, Mech, Civil etc. But with passage of time the impact of technology has increased due to which many new branches have come up like Biotech, Food tech. , Nanotech, Agri. , Mechanatronics etc. If your preferred branches are just electrical, mechanical, civil than see to this what you are interested in and go further according to that. Also, choose the university wisely. All these universities offer world-class learning atmosphere to students along with good placements.
Good luck.
