Why has IIPM not got itself duly registered, all the while giving the impression through advertisements that it is about the topmost management institutions in the country. A very bad slip up indeed. Meanwhile, the government should bail it out of its awkward position by granting it due recognition because all said and done, the institution appears to be a top notch one and would be an asset in the field of education in our country. Neither side should get ensnared in procedural wrangles.
