The new NITs established in 2010
- Manipur
- Meghalaya
- Mizoram
- Nagaland
- Arunachal Pradesh

Currently, India has 20 such top technology and engineering schools, which are considered only second to Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). The process for setting up of these new NITs started in 2009-10 with formation of their respective societies, constitution of their board of governors, appointment of directors etc. The admissions to these new NITs will be made from the academic session 2010-11. The new NITs are being set up so as to meet the needs of states and union territories which do not have NITs as of now. This will meet their long standing demand.
The new NITs will be able to provide high quality education to many of the bright students from these regions, as 50 percent of the seats are to be filled from the eligible students from these states and union territories. The new NITs will increase the output of high quality engineering and science graduates in the short run and postgraduates and Ph.Ds in the long run.
All the Best to all students who are going for AIEEE counseling.
