The Indian Institute of Management Rohtak held its third convocation on Friday, conferring diploma on 122 students from its PGDM batch of 2014. The placements also concluded at the B-School with the current batch closing. A total of 106 students out of 122 were offered jobs in 61 companies at the B-school. The average salary at the institute stands at ₹9.68 lakh this year with a highest offer of ₹17 lakh.
The convocation was declared open by Ravi Kant, Vice-Chairman of Tata Motors, and Chairman of Board of Governors at IIM-Rohtak. Member of Planning Commission and former Chairman of BCG(India), Arun Maira was Chief Guest at the convocation.
“Each of us has work to do to reform institutions we are in charge of, and in which we work. Some of us must lead and reform business corporations and other capitalist institutions,” said Maira while addressing the outgoing batch, according to a press statement. “Others amongst us must lead and reform governments and government institutions. And many others must lead and reform institutions for democratic representation: political parties, civil society organisations, and labour unions.”
He asked students to strive together towards the heaven of freedom – a country in which every citizen has all three freedoms: political, social, and economic.
