Rohtak, May 26

The appointment of the director of IIM-Rohtak has come under a cloud with reports indicating irregularities in his selection.

As per the reports, information received by an RTI activist associated with the National Campaign for People’s Right to Information (NCPRI) has indicated that the person selected as the director may not have fulfilled the eligibility criteria.

Two Members of Parliament have written to the Union Ministry of Human Resource Development to get the matter probed and take appropriate action.

On the other hand, IIM-Rohtak Director Prof Dheeraj Sharma maintained that he fulfilled the eligibility criteria for the post and had been appointed after following the due procedure.

He refused to comment any further.
