IIT and Politics

Rashmi points to a new political party that has been launched by none other than five IITians. Inspired by movie themes such as Yuva, the new party has been named as Paritrana, which means complete relief implying the end of the very cause of distress.

Tanmay Rajpurohit, who has done his MTech from Georgia Tech after a BTech (Aerospace) from IIT B, is the party President. Other office bearers include Ajit Shukla, Smit Bisen, Chandrashekhar and Bharat Sundaram - all IIT B and IITK graduates.

A big step towards a great cause. This is the first time that the technocrats have directly entered into politics by forming a political party. Hope to see these enterprising youth bring about a change and live up to the ideals on which the foundation of the party is based.
