Hello!
The first statement is partly correct. Even if NIT Agartala is situated in a remote area, it does not mean that the area won't develop in the near future. With a premier institution in that remote area, development is must to take place within years. And big companies do come NIT Agartala for placements. Core companies and PSUs visit the campus to conduct placements. The placement statistics are getting better every year in NIT Agartala. In 2019, the placements concluded with 90% record. In total, 22 companies visited the campus for recruitment. The highest salary package offered was Rs 36 LPA and the average salary package offered was between Rs 4.5-5 LPA.

The second statement of yours is true NIT Andhra Pradesh will experience a lot of development too and faster than NIT Agartala. Placements are going good and almost all students are placed in good MNCs as it is situated in a big city. Right through the establishment of the college, The Training & Placement Cell (TPC) became an active functional unit of the college. The college is working too hard to train their students so that they can survive in the cut-throat competitive market. The highest salary package offered last years was 13 LPA.

Generally NIT AP has a higher cutoff, so if you are getting NIT Agartala anyway, you must go for it. Rejecting any of these NITs is not a wise decision. As per my opinion, NIT AP will be a good decision as per the development factor but NIT Agartala is much better in terms of placement record.
All the best!
