IIPM - spread the word

First - please visit this post on Desipundit. Check out this site, whose title says its all "IIPM2Hell". Yes, it does seem genuine.

Second - spread the word.

IIPM is probably among the most-blogged issues in the Indian blogosphere.

Sometime back I was tempted to put out a post when I saw this hilarious, full-page ad carried in the Times of India and Hindustan Times. But I refrained, figuring that any publicity for these jokers is good publicity.

But after reading Desipundit today, I thought I'd at least show this ad. (Click for enlargement).



This full page ad gives us "two powerful articles" that promises to "shake our concept of justice in India". I won't even waste time reading them. Utter bakwaas. But hang on - I caught the first line of letter 2. Shayan Munshi is Mr. Chaudhuri's student ? Shabbash !

Then note the claims on Mr. Arindam Chaudhuri - "Noted economist, Management Guru, & Author of all time best sellers "Count your chickens before they hatch" & "The Great Indian Dream"". Ya rite ! And Austin Powers won the Nobel (Literature) for "Shaggadelic baby".

I'm tempted to carry on and rant about this guy. But, there are other, more-informed, posts that you can read to update yourself of this fraud.

There is, of course, the entire Gaurav Sabnis epsiode. Blog link - here.

Then there's Rashmi Bansal's blog, linked here. Check the 198 comments she has received till date and look out for a threatening comment from some deranged IIPM fan.

And finally for the IIPM Blog Wars, you can visit Desipundit's huge Oct-05 post, linked here .

I have the unfortunate opportunity to have seen most of the students of IIPM for campus interviews. I can only say that "I feel sorry for them". I simply ask you one thing. Why the hell an institute which is running a course in "Entrepreneurship and planning" is talking about placements? You guys should start your own business and employ people instead of looking for employment. If someone were to "dare to think beyond IIMs" then there are many b schools in US and UK. Some institutes are just like a napkin in a dustbin. Should stop licking it.
