There was a time when engineering was considered as one of the best careers in India to aspire. The craze was such that every other parent wanted their son to become an engineer. Who can forget 2009 Bollywood Blockbuster 3 Idiots, which had a great reference to the craze for engineering among people and loopholes in the education system?
With this craze, engineering colleges and institutes got jam packed and some more colleges opened to bath in the rain but soon it all became less worthy. Engineering suddenly became less fruitful than it ever was. Most of the graduates started being unemployed and many others got jobs with very less salaries.
