Title: Should I take Thapar ENC with loan + scholarships? Need honest advice (JEE rank ~1.36L)

Post:

Hey everyone, I really need some serious advice from seniors.

I got ENC (Electronics and Computer Engineering) at Thapar Institute and I have to pay ₹3.55 lakh before 25th, so I’m under time pressure.

My Background:

JEE Main Rank: ~136k (OBC rank ~46k)

Home State: MP

Family income: ~₹60,000/year

Didn’t give any exams other than JEE, so options are limited

My Current Options:

Thapar ENC (confirmed)

Few lower-tier government colleges where I might get CSE, but not sure about quality/brand/value

Financial Situation (Important):

Total Thapar fees: ₹31.6 lakh

MMVY scholarship(its an mp government scholarship): -₹6 lakh → ₹25.6 lakh

Education loan: ₹7.5 lakh (no collateral, no interest for 5 years)

So remaining = ~₹18.1 lakh

Now, since my income is very low, I’m eligible for Merit-cum-Means (MCM) scholarship at Thapar

👉 If I maintain ~9 CGPA:

I can reduce fees significantly

Even if I get it for 1–2 years, total cost could drop to ~₹12–15 lakh

My Goals:

Want >10 LPA placement

Good peer group

Strong college life (fests, events, social exposure)

Good infrastructure & campus

Some level of brand value

I’m extroverted, so campus environment matters a LOT

My Doubts:

Is Thapar ENC worth this cost + loan risk?

How realistic is it to maintain 9 CGPA at Thapar?

How many students actually get MCM scholarship?

What’s the real average/median package for ENC (not inflated)?

Is competition very high because of large intake?

Can I sit for IT/software placements from ENC easily?

If I work hard, can I realistically get 10–15 LPA from ENC?

How risky is taking a loan with my background?

Should I take a lower college CSE instead of Thapar ENC?

What would YOU do in my situation? (be honest)

Final Situation:

I don’t have many backup options, and I don’t want to regret missing a good college—but I also don’t want to take a bad financial decision.

Please give honest advice, especially seniors from Thapar or similar colleges 🙏

Their political strategy relies entirely on identity politics.

We will not become Mumbai or Bangalore until we put an end to this stupidity.

Found a long hair in my burger from Wrapchick (via Zomato), "resolution" was a joke

We ordered 2 burgers and 2 wraps from Wrapchick Patiala through Zomato. My mother's burger had a long hair strand in it. We only discovered it mid-meal - by that point, the mood was completely ruined and none of us could bring ourselves to eat the rest of the food.

Honestly? I felt like vomiting.

What happened when I tried to resolve it with Zomato:

I raised the issue through Zomato's chat support. It's clearly AI-driven now. They asked me for a photo, fair enough, I understand people can fake things, so I sent one.

I'm attaching the full chat screenshot here so you can see exactly what I submitted and what response I got.

I want to be upfront - I know some of the images I sent are not perfectly clear. But some of them are. Clearly. You can see the hair without any doubt. I'm not making this up, and the pictures speak for themselves.

Their "resolution"? They informed the restaurant.

That's it. That's all.

• No refund.

• No real accountability.

• No follow-up with me as the consumer.

• No escalation to food safety authorities.

The restaurant was "informed." Great. Super helpful.

Samana streets are turning into dumping grounds.

This is right beside shops and public roads. Imagine the smell, the mosquitoes, and the health risks for people living nearby. Cleanliness shouldn’t be optional. What’s causing this mess — poor management, lack of collection, or public negligence?
