Today, when I was doing some browsing about the success factors for a successful M&A for Indian companies, JLR came to my mind. I first came across a research report by an Investment bank and then a project report by some IIT/IIM students. I was shocked that these project reports were copied word by word from the Investment bank report.

These students would have been turned out of school if it would have been any global Business or Technology school. There is zero (and it is definitely 0) tolerance for plagiarism at any top school, but that is not the case at premium schools in India.
Well I never want to badmouth the so called premium institutes in India but then this does not mean that we become irrational. They are degrading in quality and reports about this degradation are surfacing in media. Just 2 days ago, Jairam Ramesh spoke something, which everyone knows – “Faculty and Research at IIM’s and IIT’s sucks”. There were reports of IIT’s thesis being copied and other. IIT Kanpur recently was in media for a copied thesis case. 2 days ago Sandeep Dikshit voiced the same about a reputed college.
Hope Kapil Sibal, Minister – HRD is listening and start doing something radical instead of fighting with Jairam Ramesh..........Ha Ha .......I am definitely away from any politics
