Three IIM Indore Undergrads Expelled for Drug Abuse

by Lajwanti D'Souza in• 21 September '13 from Pagalguy

---

Yet another case of drugs abuse has hit the Indian Institute of Management Indore. This time 3 students of the Integrated Programme in Management were caught smoking up on the campus. The incident happened a week ago and a disciplinary committee was set up to probe it.

Committee members apparently had long discussions with the students before arriving at a decision to expel all of them. According to Dr Akhtar Parvez, Dean, Administration the parents of the students were informed and they were given the choice of withdrawing from the five-year programme.

The boys are 17 years old and come from academically-eminent families. Two of the boys are from South India. The parents were apparently in a state of shock on hearing about the incident while the students generally seemed ‘unmoved.’ Parents of all the students had come to the campus to collect their wards.

Drugs abuse is not unheard of in b-schools in India. However, while many institutes prefer to let it be as a ‘natural thing’ on campus, IIM Indore has always been taking action to the point of expelling students. Adds Dr Parvez: “We have a zero-tolerant attitude when it comes to alcohol, smoking or drugs. We do not like to give students a second chance if the committee set up to study the case suggests that we expel the students. It is a message we want to send across.”

The students procured the drugs from dhabas sprung up close to the institute. According to sources, while these dhabas also sell parathas and sabjee, they eventually sell drugs to those who visit them often and have the cash to cough up.

Last year too, five students were caught taking drugs in two different cases at IIM Indore . In February 2012, two students were expelled for taking drugs and later in October, three students were expelled for the same reason. Some of the students were given a chance to get return after a year of which one student joined back IIM Indore.

Final JEE Main score will be prepared by 60:40 rule

Last JEE Apex body meeting was held on Tuesday, in this meeting all members decided to keep normalisation rule as last year. The board decided to continue with the procedure for normalising board scores for the JEE-Main. “We may have a re-look at the procedure in 2015 based on the experience of the first two years,” the source said

CBSE may conduct JEE Main twice in a year from 2015

JEE Apex body meeting was held on Tuesday to discuss new CBSE proposal of conducting JEE Main twice in a year. If this proposal is accepted all students can appear two times for JEE Main without losing a year. JEE Apex body accept that this will reduce stress of students.

If this proposal is accepted, new system could be implemented from 2015. In these two exams, CBSE will consider best score of the candidates as final JEE Main score.

Final announcement has not been made yet. All experts are not in favour of this proposal. According to some IIT Professors repeat exam could increase stress as every candidate would try to improve his or her marks. “The second chance may prove good for students who have missed the first exam for a genuine reason. But it will encourage every student to take both the tests to improve their chances.”
