Is SVNIT not good as it used to be before?

The reputation of SVNIT has comparatively declined over the years. 

The same is evident from these facts-

1. The NIRF rankings of SVNIT have seen a sharp decline over the years. From the 16th rank in 2016, SVNIT has dropped down to 65th rank in 2023 from among top Engineering Colleges in India.
2. In recent years, a case of corruption in the bus tendering system in SVNIT came to light. A Professor from the Civil department was suspended in this matter.
3. There were also talks of a Promotion Scam, i.e. instead of deserving Professors, other undeserving ones with strong connections were given promotions. The Professors went on a two day strike because of this scam.

Though plenty of improvements have been made in the college infrastructure, I tried to shed light on some of the unfortunate incidents from the past. 

There are plenty other reasons for the declining state of SVNIT, and the administration should take appropriate actions to re-establish the reputation of this institution.
