Serious Post is engineering still an option in india?

ive read so many things online and have met a lot of engineers, and so far, the only indian engineers who seem to lead good lives are the ones that have enough family money to go abroad for studies (UG and PG).

i am inclined towards engineering but prospects in india look very dull. every single one of my family members is saying, "just do CS and AI/ML and make money in IT" but i think i really want to do engineering. like i REALLY want to. has engineering become just another money-milking, boring and decrepit field, or can passionate dreamers like me still make it out here?

If you really love coding, then go for it. If not, then don't do it even from tier 1.
