While both of these colleges offer good education, MNNIT Allahabad holds an edge over MNIT Jaipur. I have friends studying in both the colleges and their first-hand experiences clearly depict how better MNNIT Allahabad is.
Overall, it is highly recommended to choose MNNIT Allahabad over MNIT Jaipur any day. The better placement ratio, friendly and supportive faculty, etc, make it the perfect place for new engineering aspirants like you.

You can get a good job if you go for IIT ISM, as good as a job you can get from its Bhubaneswar counterpart.
ET Lucknow is an autonomous constituent college of Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU). It is considered one of the tier 3 engineering colleges in the state and most of the students from the institute pass out with an average salary of INR 3 – 4 lakhs per annum to work as clerks in service-based companies which cannot be termed great in any sense.
Electrical Engineering as a discipline is also very dead and there will be very few core companies who will offer jobs.
The skills demanded by the industry are not being supplied by the students and thus placements are lower. If the colleges start implementing changes and upskill their students the situation will definitely improve. But as it stands today, the placements are grim.
