It was already said in this blog that there would be a fee hike in all the IIMs. Following this it was heard that quota system will also come into effect in the IIMs. HRD ministry will be sending instructions to the top B-schools like IIMs to enforce the 27 percent OBC reservation which was the decision by the Supreme Court. This instructions will be intimated in another 4 to 5 days.
HRD Minister Arjun Singh earlier in the day said there was no confusion about implementation of quota in IIMs and IITs and the Supreme Court judgement would be followed in these premier institutions.
Sources said the IIMs are by and large prepared to implement the quota as one year has gone by and that they will leave it to the institutions on the implementation aspect of the reservation.
If these institutions have any problem, they could come back to the ministry and 'that it will be resolved by them, they said adding it was for each institute to decide to what extent they can introduce quota in the first year of implementation.
The sources said the fund would start flowing to the IIMS when Parliament approves the demands for grants.
