NR Narayan Murthy, chairman of the Indian Institute Of Management, Ahmedabad, yesterday described as 'incorrect' reports that the institute had rejected grants from the Centre. | "This is incorrect. Firstly, no decision has yet been made whether to seek grants for the next year or not," he said in a statement here. |
| "IIM-A owes its current pre-eminent status to the wisdom, encouragement and extraordinary support that it has received from successive ministers and bureaucrats of the ministry of human resources development. IIM-A has never been, and will never be so arrogant as to 'reject' the help of a well-wisher like the human resources development ministry," Murthy said. |
| "It is a well-known fact that the admissions at IIM-A are 'need-blind'""no student who has been found worthy of admission has ever had to forfeit his/her admission for want of funds," he said. |
