Among the above three, CS at BITS Goa is the best institute to opt for. Agreeing with a few of my friends studying there, I can say that it provides better placements and wider industry exposure.
BITS Goa offers the best curriculum among the three, with no reservation, and offering flexible courses. Through the course, the faculty helps in all sorts of projects and thesis related works. Thought-provoking ideas are extremely encouraged.

Placements (Winning Institute- BITS Goa)
The placement training in BITS Goa is extremely essential and productive. There is an established coding culture in CS, which makes students excel in open source coding more than DTU and PEC students.
The campus culture of BITS Goa is among the top 10 colleges in India. Technical, cultural, and sports fests held here are among the best in the country. BITS Goa is a private college and a newer establishment having the best campus and infrastructure with all the necessary amenities.
There are two factors to consider while choosing your college, the institute itself and the branch you are getting.
In your case, NIT Kurukshetra is the better institute but CSE is the better branch. In such cases, you should prioritize the branch. That being said, CSE is a much wider and in-demand branch right now. The opportunities are infinite and not comparable to IT. In fact, for CSE, the institute doesn't even matter much because the job opportunities depend more on individual skills and passion for the field. If you are genuinely interested in CSE, the opportunity offered by NIT Hamirpur and NIT Kurukshetra will have only a hairline difference.

As you can see, there isn't much difference in the packages. Moreover, you can opt for off-campus placements. One of my friends did so and secured a package of 1 crore in the USA. So, your interest in the field matters more than anything.
If you do not get into IITs or NITs then Amity can be considered as a good option. Almost all the colleges have the same curriculum and course, the difference lies in the type of placements and opportunities offered by the University.
