(Mis) Management ?

You guessed it right ! It's about IIPM. The mis-management is setting up the blog world ablaze (those who are not aware of the issue, please type in "IIPM" in Technorati and read posts). The crux of the matter is, an IBM employee Gaurav writes about the credibility of IIPM in his blog and gets a legal notice and protests from them. I am really curious to know how this whole thing would turn around. Since it has been noticed by the MSM (Main Stream Media), it would be interesting to watch whether the issue fizzles out or hits loud with a bang. Whatever happens it is definitely going to test the integrity of the bloggers. A.Sandip, IIPM's all-India dean says "We are not concerned about the blog, and in no way has the written matter on the blog affected us, but we are going to take legal action against the blogger for defamation. The person is identifiable. It is a legal notice against the person and not the blog." If any of you guys find some logic in these words please let me know !

Yea, after Dinamalar, Kushboo, now IIPM seems to be the hot topic. I had never heard of this institute till now.

Nothing against the blog, but only against the person?. What the!!.. Pangaali sandaiaa?.

Wonders of wonders - if you check out their website, he has actually managed to get President Kalam for some function in the institute.

Also, a wiki entry has been made for IIPM (lambasting it before someone removes the biased statements).

Dear Kasthuri,

I have been reading lotsa things on the blogosphere... cannot really comment on the matter as I am yet to get it in full. however to answer your question..
logic can not be expected in defensive statements unless made in a philosophical debate. most human beings become illogical when taking defensive action.

as for your previous post.. nice really.
however I think the Vedantic perspective of what 'I' means when you say I am angry can be debated.
'I' can not be subject to states in its actual nature but only in superimposition with the body-mind appartus.
does your post factor this in or have I not read it correctly?

@ tt : "What the!!.. Pangaali sandaiaa?" LOL. Yeh, I saw the wiki entry...it was interesting. Also, it is funny to watch blogs raising up suddenly from nowhere in support of IIPM.

@ ranj : Yeh...its very interesting.

@ Anand : mmm...true, illogic is in the very fabric of thought, I would say. Reg. prev post. I don't mean to say 'I' is subject to states, but it is fixed and integral aspect of body-mind complex. Does it make sense ?

@ vatsan : Saw u'r post on IIPM somedays back but was not aware of the issue.

@ satya : Eppadi jaga vangara patya... :-(

@ naikutti : Thank u so much for your comments, I have answered them. Please do post such informative comments. They are enlightning.
