IISERs are expanding and so are IITs

Starting this academic year, two new IISERs will start functioning out of Bhopal and Trivandram. In addition, there have been talks about new IITs starting in Hyderabad (Medak to be exact) and Patna - a definite boost to the aspiring students. The real question, in my opinion, is the million dollar question of how the new IITs and even the old IITs will deal with the faculty shortage. I might comment on that sometime later. For now, good luck to the IISERs and IITs that are coming up.
