Hello sir. I am bsc graduate 2014. I am very much interested in doing mca from iit roorkee. I have seen the syllabus and eligibilty from your website. I just want to know whether the mca course is available or not in iit roorkee for the year 2015. I have heard rumours that mca course has been removed from iit's. Is it true? I have 7-8 months of preparation time. It will be a golden chance for me to get into iit's. Please reply.
Thank you.
