Hello ,

I see that you are comparing NIT Rourkela and NIT Surathkal. 

According to NIRF obviously NIT Surathkal is having better rank than NIT Rourkela . So it will be better . But now it comes to rank . If you are having rank in which you can get  better branch in NIT Surathkal then you should go for it.  

It totally depends on you. If you are preferring college above branch then go for it. Or you can go for better branch. 

Thank you.
