Controversy

The University Grants Commission of India (UGC) issued a public notice stating that IIPM was not a university recognized by it, and that it could not confer or grant degrees. In January 2013, a court in Gwalior ordered the Department of Telecommunications to block several URLs of several with content critical of IIPM. The blocked webpages included the public notice on the UGC website. Other blocked URLs included content from The Indian Express, The Economic Times, The Times of India, The Wall Street Journal, Outlook Magazine, FirstPost, Rediff, The Caravan Magazine, as well as satirical websites such as Faking News and The UnReal Times. Chaudhuri had earlier got an injunction from a court in Silchar against the publishing of an article on him and IIPM in Caravan magazine. This censorship was called a clear abuse of the judicial process by legal experts in the media, and led to a huge outrage in traditional as well as social media. The online community responded with a counter-offensive against IIPM and Chaudhuri, calling attention worldwide to what the institute wanted purged. Chaudhuri defended the legal action against UGC and the media, saying that the UGC and AICTE are "full of bribe-seeking corrupt officials".
