New Delhi: Unlike the IITs, the IIMs have accepted the Government's salary structure for the faculty, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal said on Friday.
After meeting the IIM directors in the Capital, Sibal said the directors did not raise any issue over the pay structure as they have accepted it.
The government in August came up with the revised pay structure for the faculty of Centrally Funded Technical Educational Institutions. However, the IIT faculty protested certain "anomalies" in the pay package after which the government revised the pay structure twice.
Faculty of certain IIMs also requested their institutes not to implement the pay structure for the time being. The government later clarified that its guidelines are just norms which could be relaxed to promote excellence.
Sibal said the government will come out with a performance-related incentive scheme to provide special incentives to teachers in IIMs to promote excellence.
He said the IIMs are finding difficult to get faculty. The government will meet the IIM directors on six months' basis to evolve new strategy to get rid of the problem, he said.
The IIMs will set up separate committees to discuss their problems at the institute level before bringing them to the government, Sibal said.
