Which is better, IIT Gandhinagar or NIT Tiruchi?

Even though both institutes are good, one has the tag of being an IIT, and the other ranks #9 on the NIRF ranking scale; however, they can't be compared this way. One of my friends is from IIT Gandhinagar, I’ll describe it for you. 

Career-

• Most students opt for a Ph.D. or MS abroad because the projects given in BTech are not compulsory. You are free to pursue your interests in the projects of your choice from the second year onwards. 
• If you're interested in research, then IIT GN will definitely help you because there are many alumni in the US. 

Internships

• Many research internships available to you through these connections which many students turn into fruitful PhDs. 
• If you're seeking non-core jobs, then you'd find that the culture is not as focussed upon non-core jobs as in other institutions, hence fewer opportunities.

Infrastructure- 

• • The infrastructure is absolutely marvelous, rather, it is definitely one of the best of all IITs. 
  • Brand new AC hostels and a sports complex have been established last year. 
  • The mess has received numerous awards for its food, so that doesn't need any elaboration.

• The college keeps up the excellent work by making sure that the complaint related to infrastructure or repairs are attended to as soon as they are filed.

Moreover, there are no hostel timings or restrictions on movement for both boys and girls. The course structure is also very flexible and focuses more on an individual's interest and expansion of skills. IIT Gandhinagar is a new IIT and is still trying to establish its reputation as an IIT, whereas NIT Trichy has an excellent reputation that matches that of 6 of the old IITs. Some of my friends claim that it provides better funding for research.
