NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SILCHAR
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SILCHAR In the late fifties, the Government of India decided to establish Regional Engineering Colleges (RECs) under the Quality Technical Education Policy. The Regional Engineering College Silchar has been transformed and upgraded to National Institute of Technology Silchar with the status of Deemed University on June 28, 2002. Its emblem has a blue circle in the centre meaning the centre of focus surrounded by seven petals of lotus representing seven states of Northeast India in a circular form. This is supported by its motto in Sanskrit ‘तेजस्वी नवधीतमस्तु’ meaning ‘Let our Study be Enlightening’. These are ensconced by its name written around in the form of a circle in Hindi and English.
