किरIITH is now an E-ISSN journal. All the issues since 2020 qualified for the ISSN parameter. Each issue is being dedicated to one of the thrust research areas of IITH. Following this precedence, we are back with yet another critical area of research at IITH, Transportation Research @IITH" - Issue - 16 (Vol-5, Issue-3). Transportation Geotechnics is a fairly new emerging research area that addresses the practical issues of highway pavements from the geotechnical engineering point of view. There is a huge career potential in this area as India is envisioning investing heavily in infrastructure for national development. This issue observes Vigilance Awareness Week, coinciding with National Integrity Day (राष्ट्रीय एकता दिवस) to celebrate every year the birth anniversary of Shri Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, known to be a man of high integrity - the Iron Man of India (Oct 30 - Nov 5, 2023).
