A fascinating comparison was drawn between the private coaching institutes of Rajasthan and the newer government IITs. These commercial institutes operate with corporate media departments, branded uniforms, and infrastructure covering dozens of acres. While it is impressive to see how these student economies sustain entire cities, it raises a larger philosophical question: are these multi-storey empires crossing the line from being supplementary learning centers to acting as unregulated parallel universities? When former IITians point out that real IITs focus heavily on research, entrepreneurship, and cultural festivals (like Mood Indigo or Antaragni) while coaching centers focus purely on a single exam score, should we be worried about this "mini-IIT" trend?
