IIT Kanpur Exam Question on Kejriwal Stirs Controversy

New Delhi. Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal's party recently faced defeat in the Delhi Assembly elections. Kejriwal has been an officer of the Indian Revenue Service. Earlier, he studied at IIT Kharagpur. However, the renowned institute in which he studied did not leave any opportunity to troll Arvind Kejriwal. In an exam of IIT Kanpur held after the Delhi election results, children were asked a question about Arvind Kejriwal's Mann Ki Baat program of PM Narendra Modi, which is going viral at this time. When the matter gained momentum, the institute also gave clarification on it.

Actually, the question said in the technical language of the IT sector that Arvind Kejriwal wants to listen to PM Modi's Mann Ki Baat program on radio, but Kejriwal does not have enough money to tune it on FM because he has spent most of his money on advertising during the election campaign. In the IIT Kanpur exam, it was asked that suppose Kejriwal wants to listen to PM Modi's 'Mann Ki Baat' program on Vividh Bharti FM.

Exam held on 11 February

This exam of the Electrical Engineering Department (ESC201 course) was asked in the examination held on 11 February. Students were asked to design a filter for former CM Kejriwal, using which Kejriwal can pass the content of one radio channel while reducing the surrounding two radio channels by 60 dB so that he can listen to the PM's broadcast. Students were asked to help 'Kejriwal' design this filter using R (resistor), L (inductor) and C (capacitor) components.

IIT clarified

When this question went viral on social media, IIT Kanpur also clarified about it. They said, "It has come to our notice that a question from an exam in the Department of Electrical Engineering is going viral on social media. We would like to clarify that the faculty member in the question often includes references to famous people to make the exam questions more attractive to students. Similar references in the past have included characters such as Tony Stark. The purpose behind this approach is purely academic, it has no other implications."
