Earlier, Lok Sabha informed that the post of the directors is vacant in 13 IIMs. In some of the IIMs, the tenure of the outgoing director has been extended until the appointment of a new director. Similarly, in some IIMs the senior professor of the institute has been given an additional charge.

It is time for the government to take steps for the appointment of directors in other IIMs too.
