HRD ministry looking IIM Trichy Director
MUMBAI: It’s now the turn of India’s top management schools to expand their club. The ministry of human resource development called for
applications on Tuesday to fill up the positions of four directors for IIMs at Raipur (Chhattisgarh), Rohtak (Haryana), Ranchi (Jharkhand) and Tiruchirappalli (Tamil Nadu).
With the Central government clearing the new payscales for centrally funded technical institutes for IITs and IIMs, the ministry will now pay all the directors a monthly salary of Rs 80,000. The XIth Five-Year Plan assured IIMs to Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand, Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Jammu and Kashmir and Meghalaya. The IIM in Shillong started last year. And four new IIMs can start classes from 2010. ‘‘The announcement appointing directors of two more IIMs will come later in the year once the Centre and the respective states zero in on the land for setting up the campus,’’ an official said.
Earlier this year, the HRD ministry asked directors of the old IIMs to mentor the new institutes but they refused initially. Later a committee appointed by the Centre, too, recommended that the old IIMs extend their support to establish the new management colleges. Now the directors have agreed.
