Has any one seen the ad about Dr. M K choudhury in the Indian express. These guys are going to defend themselves till IIPM vanishes. You would also have seen the stories on CNBC of late. Here is to the death of IIPM.

USD 1100 take home per month for student of 2003 batch! WOW! Thats cool!

I am woking with Infosys. We have MBA’s from many B schools. I feel IIM guys are at PAR in work to MBA’s from other B schools like Jamnalal, Wellinkars, SP Jain. Also have few guys from IIPM.I feel they too are at PAR with the above mentioned B-Schools.

One problem with IIM guys is they come with lot of ATTITUDE which is washed away when they start cracking real life work problems. Cracking CAT doesnt mean they are good at work.

I work in IT MNC. My colleague is IIPM Mumbai Post Graduate of 2003-05 batch. His take home in India is USD 110 per month! He is now working in Europe for the same company. There he draws USD 6000 per month.

I am not interested in proving this to any TOM, DICK or HARRY.
If any IIM students want to challenge this claim, please post your contact info and I will be glad to give you proof. I am especially interested in showing this to the IIM professor who has written about Arindam and IIMP.

Well, this matter is over.Only worried abt security of some people involved. Is there anybody can suggest HOW IIPM SHOULD HAVE HANDLED THE CASE,
OR should do now as damage reduction exercise…
Any devil’s advocate there ?? This is a challenge to upcoming lawyers and managers….

Guys,

The continuing saga of lies that the professor has perfected. In the morning newspaper of HT today, there was this ad of their magazine ‘Business & economy’. It starts by claims of EXCLUSIVE columns by Jack Welch and Naom Cmomsky. I wondered about these great people writing for a magazine like B & E and searched the web. Lo and behold, it was avalaible everywhere and the New York times syndicte is selling it for a very very small price. I am sure, if you talk to the looney professor, he will give his own excuses.

Its clear that only confirmed morons have joined IIPM in the past and there will be many confirmed morons who will join IIPM in the future. No amount of blogging can save any moron from joining IIPM. So IIPM management have actually proved that (a) they are morons when they sued and protested. (b) they don’t know that they are morons and need bloggers to tell them that. (c) they don’t know that their students are morons and need bloggers to tell them that.

I am not sure of the current state of affairs at IIPM. As far as their ad goes in the media declaring to think above the IIM`s. I guess they have the right to say what they feel about their institution. As far as issues regarding the accrediation of IIPM is concerned. The states where IIPM is operating have their own laws governing the educational institutions operating in the state.

I also empathize with the fact that the students of IIPM strongly for their institute.
What is not acceptable is the manner in which the mail was sent to gaurav and rashmi. Its tone was less a legal notice and more of a threat to cause incovenience mentally or financially.

If Arindam wants to repudiate the comments made on him. He should do so by bringing a white paper on the matter. If he can issue front page ad`s in national dailies about his institute. And that if the blog of Gaurav can cause losses of the tune of 125 crores, then i am sure Arindam has the necessary urgency and the resources to protect his and IIPM`s reputation.

So i am waiting for Arindam to ward off the claims in the blog and come clean. The cheap theatrics of trying to intimidate someone airing his views is not acceptable and tolerable.

Redeem yourself and your students faith in you arindam the right way if you feel so strongly about the whole issue.

I had started reading the Great Indian Dream a few days ago and actually came across this issue on the web via OSS channels. It is indeed a sad affair. Methink IIPM should really rethink their stand on this issue [not that it is likely to happen] and just come out clean, and take this as a learning experience. Just my 0.02 bytes worth.

Is IIPM still suing people or have they given up after Varna? I really want one of those 175 crore lawsuits.
