Hire and fire policy in IIMs

Bhargava committee has recommended the "hire and fire" policy for faculty recruitment in IIMs. In my opinion it is a welcome suggestion.

This would improve the quality of faculty members in the IIMs and thereby improve the quality of education in IIMs. Moreover this should be applied to all education institutions across the country especially at the professional level.

In my experience as a student I felt that the quality of education in our institutions are very poor. The staff are not really up to mark and not even interested to deliver their responsibilities as required of them. They are quite sure that their jobs are quite safe and they keep themselves busy with administrative or internal politics. It adversely affects the students and the standard of education.

In India it is important that we develop in technology and economy. We are not up to par with any of the developed countries. We are boasting of sending Chandrayana-I to moon yet this may not have happened without the help of outside countries.

I think we should be honest enough to accept our deficiency and work towards eliminating them.
