Having been recognized as a constant innovator in terms of program designing, IIM-Shillong on Thursday formally launched its first executive post-graduate programme (PGPEx) on international business with special reference to China, which is being dubbed as the first ever in the arena of business studies.

"The programme is an outcome of visionary leadership paving the way for a fruitful collaboration with the Ocean University of China located at Qingdao," a spokesperson for the youngest B-school in the country said.

"This is a strategic move, and we have chosen to deliberately tie up with OUC's economics department rather than its business school. We are of the opinion that this will help enhance synergies and derive better insights into the Chinese economy and business culture. Our motto is to never duplicate resources but in fact synergize to get the best out of collaborative efforts in terms of expertise and use of resources," said Ashoke Kumar Dutta, director of the institution.

Addressing the first batch of 35 students undertaking the PGPEx, Dutta's exhorted, "We expect you to be morally upright, intellectually competent, socially committed and spiritually inspired, all the while taking advantage of being a member of the IIM-S community."

TKA Nair, adviser to the Prime Minister, lauded the innovative approaches of IIM-Shillong in terms of its use of technology and more so its programmes. Nair said in a changing global economy in the context of changing relationships with China, the avenues for business must be grasped to ensure a sense of well-being for the general populace of both countries. "China's role and global economy is bound to grow in the days to come and we have to learn to live and compete as a friendly neighbour," he said. Nair portrayed that the programme, being launched by IIM-Shillong, is "extremely timely and will benefit the country at large."

Private medical colleges are opposed to any review of admissions at the moment saying that they were planning to send their management quota merit lists to NTR University of Health and Medical Sciences in Vijayawada for its approval.

"If the government suspected foul play in the admission process, it should have looked into the matter before the opening of the process. This is no time for a re-evaluation of admissions," said Laxman Rao, secretary of the consortium of private medical college managements.

Sources said that the governor's directive to the government calling for a second look at management quota admissions was based on proof of sale of seats submitted by NGO Save Merit Society. The NGO in question had earlier approached high court seeking a stay on admissions at this colleges. The case will come up for hearing on July 8.

"Several colleges in the state have sold their management quota seats at prices in excess of Rs 45 lakh. Some colleges have even charged Rs 1 crore for a five-year MBBS degree. We have been fighting against this practice," said VARK Prasad, the NGO's president. In its petition to the court, the complainant has mentioned 14 colleges which have allegedly been selling their seats at exorbitant rates.

Up to 40% of seats in medical colleges are marked for the management quota for which admissions are to be made on the basis of merit. The fee prescribed for management quota is Rs 5.5 lakh per annum for a course that lasts four years and six months.

As per GO 136, this fee should be collected in four instalments. "None of these rules are followed by private medical college managements," Prasad alleged.
