1. “LTC Office Memorandums.pdf” contains Office Memorandums (O.M.) that IIM Ahmedabad
received from Department of expenditure, Ministry of Finance, GoI,
2. “LTC Potential Scam.pdf” contains vigilance inputs from concerned employees and decisions
of management,
3. “LTC General Ledger - Advances.pdf”
“People cannot speak or express themselves unless they know” said Supreme Court in case of
"Raj Narain vs State of UP".
As is apparent from the referred documents, one Mr. Makwana was denied favors which were
hitherto been extended to select band of officials. For example institute permitted plunder of
Rs.70,000/-(per person) for LTC to Port Blair (advance of Rs.63,000/- per person @90%).
According to General Ledger (LTC) all inclusive package tours were granted for many other
destinations as well. THIS when,
Apart from communications from one Mr. Bhatt and Mr. Makwana there allegedly exists atleast
one email (dated 5/9/2010 ~8pm) received by CVO of IIM Ahmedabad which requested for CBI
inquiry (and much more) in LTC issue.
CVO of IIM Ahmedabad, instead of asking his own department staff to inquire, routinely forces
inconvenient employees to furnish solid proof for vigilance complaint/ inputs that he receives.
Even though such employees do NOT have access to institute records, CVO threatens them (in
writing) with coercive actions in case they fail to gather evidences.
Processing vigilance inputs is synonymous to ‘beating around the bush’. And then CVO puts
such ‘whistleblower’ employees on the mat for target practice by Director, CSC Chair, CAO and
other senior officials. Target practice to set an example. Target practice to inhibit other
employees.
I notice that there exists following among other resources that discusses similar issues related to
IIMA,

THIS current ripoff report largely tallies with above resources which allege that IIM Ahmedabad is
a ripoff in terms of ethics and morality that citizens of India expect from a public institution. Infact
documents referred herein current report actually substantiate IIM Ahmedabad being a rip-off
even in terms of wastage of public funds including student fees.
We have just seen series of exposes. Malice is confirmed to exist within elite ranks,
judiciary (running contempt of court case against Mr. Prashant Bhushan when he alleged that
half of SC Chief justices were corrupt),
defense forces (two retired army chiefs and many more are indicted in Adarsh scam),
Department of Space http://bit.ly/gJ7zEZ (S-band spectrum scam involving senior scientists
and technocrats),
academic institutes (ISB, Chief Rajat Gupta),
academic institutes (LSE, alleged plagiarism by Prince Saif Gaddafi of Libya)

I would like to repeat, verbatim, one para from ripoff report (((link redacted))) http://bit.ly/h96Obr
by one ‘voice.of.dissent’. Non-responsive BoG, malafide executive and sabotaged vigilance give
field day to corrupt officials. It also leaves ‘whistleblower’ employee without proper support
system, guidance and grievance redressal, thereby forcing ‘whistleblower’ to do their own
detective work and search for radical solutions thereby endangering their fundamental right to fair
and equitable employment. Truth, honesty and integrity are the biggest casualty.
Under patronage of friendly media (and resultant hands-off approach by Ministry of HRD),
institute officials aspire to slice out an “imperium in imperio” within India. ‘Oligarchy’, under
façade of autonomy.
Great institutions continuously strive to reinforce their value system and consciously indulge in
periodic audit.
Thanks.
