FTR, CALS is one of Cornell’s “contract” colleges, like Dyson, ILR, Nolan; it was designed to serve NYS and it’s residents but it’s definitely not just agriculture(&business) nor is it limited to them, by far. Their informatics major is just applied CS and very reputable.
You don’t need to apply but it’s often harder to find that major among the offerings - so fewer students bother and thus it’s both highly valued and less competitive, a good combination.
But never mind.
Universities can be in very poor shape - but not all are. 10k is A LOT of money in India, meaning you should find non local, well-funded universities that you can get into, in addition to applying to European universities. 
Your choice is NOT “crumbling down local univ or prestigious US college”.
