How do people of Chandigarh feel about IIT Ropar?

People at chandigarh barely know about IIT Ropar. 😛
1. When I got in Ropar, My Grandmom asked me “Didn’t you get in PEC?” (she lives in chandigarh).
2.The cab driver who drove me to Ropar asked why didn’t I go to PEC, then without letting me answer, he bluntly said that I didn’t get in.
3. I was talking to my brother who is currently in 10th and is from a very reputed school in Chandigarh (Panchkula per se) and he wants to do non-medical in his plus 2. and he didn’t know about IIT Ropar.

IIT Ropar is around 40 Kms away from chandigarh, and unfortunately thats the truth. Deal with it.
