Hi Rakshit,
Every university is doing its efforts according to their abilities. In my opinion, you should opt for B.Tech CSE in LPU because one of my friends did B.Tech (CSE) from LPU and she is working in an MNC now.

LPU is better option between two of them. Faculty are excellent in their field. They provide education beyond the four walls of the classroom and gets into the practicality of the subject which is very important for future goals. After the course developed competence in areas like Programming, Database Management Systems, Networks and Security, Operating Systems, Cloud Computing etc. College also provides students the basic skills required to keep pace with changing technological advances, the university has industrial tie-ups with Oracle and SAP. -
According to LPU and SRM, I feel LPU is the best University, as it has a good environment and good placements. And, one of my sister studied in this college. So, it would be good, if you can try for this. I am telling you this with an experience. All the best. -
