The first offer of help came from ussr who agreed to collaborate in the establishment of an institute through unesco at bombay.
This was followed by the institutes of technology at madras, kanpur and delhi with collaborations with west germany, usa and uk respectively. Indian institute of technology, guwahati was established in 1995 and the university of roorkee was converted into an iit in 2001.
The government of india negotiated with the british government for collaboration in setting up an institute of technology at delhi. The british government agreed in principle to such a collaboration, but were inclined initially to start in a modest way.
