Hi

It is completely your call dear if you want to to get into IIT Kharagpur then you can  take a drop and prepare again and clear JEE advanced next year and can get into IIT Kharagpur depending upon your rank but if you are ok with NITs then with your rank you have decent chances in NITs so you can choose not to take a drop or you can also so take partial drop means you can take admission in NIT and along with your btech side by side you can  prepare for jee advanced.

So, take time, think over what actually you want and then make a decision.
