CM’s letter to the PM on the IIT shifting issue
February 18th, 2007
The CM’s letter to the PM on the IIT issue is at http://iitorissa.org. If the CM, busy amidst elections, could send a letter within 2-3 days of the news coverage of the IIT shifting, we should not delay further.
We must strengthen the cause of IIT for Orissa and the hand of the CM, by each one of us at least writing to the PM and planning commission.
If you can spare a bit more time, please contact Orissa MPs and tell them to make the case in the parliament. They were the ones who convinced the PM about NISER and prior to that protest in the well of the Lok Sabha.
If you can spare additional time, please conatct national news media.

The decision of shifting IIT from orissa is painful. It is shameful on the part of the central government. One IIT must be established in Orissa.
