Public interest to orders ignored: Govt gets power to dissolve IIM boards
Ritika Chopra | 11 November 2023 | Indian Express
THE GROUNDS under which the Government of India will get to invoke powers to dissolve the board of any Indian Institute of Management are likely to be: i) persistent disobeying of its orders, ii) public interest and iii) inability of the board to perform its duties.
The Board of Governors is the highest decision-making body in an IIM, and the government acts through the Visitor of the IIMs, who is the President of India.
