What stands out

The clip explains a coordinated All-IITs placement committee response after more than 150 campus job offers for 2026 graduates were not honoured, resulting in 22 recruiters being barred for the next two placement seasons. The committee framed the action as necessary because multiple firms failed to cooperate with post-offer processes, and placement cells are trying cross-referrals that have placed about 20 to 30 percent of affected students so far. The piece focuses on student impact and the institutions’ leverage over campus recruiting.
