Indian School of Mines (ISM), Dhanbad is battling with the issue of empty seats , as it is set to be moved up to an Indian establishment of Technology (IIT) from next scholarly year.

At this moment, IIT confirmations and admission to ISM, Dhanbad happens through basic guiding of understudies who break the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced exam. As of late, it has been watched that the quantity of understudies admitted to ISM through joint guiding is declining relentlessly. In 2012, 931 understudies were admitted to ISM. 850 understudies were conceded in 2013 and around 750 were conceded in 2014.

It might be too soon for understudies and instructors of ISM-Dhanbad to cheer, however they can let their desires for an IIT status take off.

Head administrator of India appears to be set to stay faithful to his obligation of changing over the prestigious support into an IIT despite the fact that a specialist board shaped to investigate the request is against an update.

As per profoundly put sources in the Union HRD service, the Modi government is prone to overrule a report by the board, headed by previous chief of IIT-Bombay teacher, which has educated against transformation with respect to ISM into an IIT.
