The Uttarakhand High Court has asked the Secretary of the Ministry of Education to investigate allegations of financial mismanagement involving excess spending of over Rs 8 crore at IIM Kashipur.
A division bench of Chief Justice G. Narendra and Justice Subhash Upadhyay heard the case.
The petition was filed by Kashipur resident Sukhwinder Singh. He said that auditors had raised objections over financial irregularities.
However, despite the Board of Directors being responsible for reviewing the issue, no action has been taken in the last two years.
The petitioner asked the Court to order an investigation into the matter.
The Court has now told the Ministry to treat the petition as a formal representation and complete the probe within four weeks.
