Indore (Madhya Pradesh) [India], August 22: A book highlighting the top 100 IITians in the country has been published by the IIT Alumni Association. The book features prominent figures like Narayana Murthy, founder of Infosys, Nandan Nilekani, as well as Indore’s renowned educationist and Chairman of IPS Group of Institutions, Architect Achal Chaudhary. A grand ceremony for the book’s launch and the honouring of these IITians was held in Bengaluru.
The book titled “100 Great IITians: Dedicated to the Service of the Nation” was edited by Commander V.K. Jaitly, an alumnus of IIT Kharagpur, and published by Excel India Publishers. The book was launched at the Bangalore International Centre, with Professor Rishikesha T. Krishnan, Director of IIM Bangalore, as the chief guest.

Architect Achal Chaudhary, a distinguished educationist from Indore, earned his degree from IIT Kharagpur and went on to establish a significant reputation in the field of education across the country.
