I want a legal notice too

Late to throw my hat into the ring. Nevertheless, better late than never.
The story so far: Sometime ago Rashmi and JAM magazine had done an expose on IIPM. Gaurav Sabnis, a popular blogger, linked to her article and was served a legal notice via e-mail. Some days later Varna, another bogger, received a similar legal notice. Gaurav has subsequently resigned from his job so that his employer isn't dragged into the controversy. Meanwhile the entire blogging community has risen in support of Rashmi and Gaurav.

The IIPM guys have gone a bit too far this time. Not only do they have the nerve to advertise such blatant lies about themselves, but also they have the cheek to threaten to silence whoever writes against them. Wonder where the head of the legal cell of IIPM got his degrees from. Is it IIPM just like it's patron in chief Arindam C? Folks you are welcome to serve me a notice too.

The fact is that fracas has resulted in a lot of negative publicity for the institue. The people who will suffer most are the students of IIPM. If being taken in by this fraudulent institute was not enough, many now face what little prospect that they had of getting a decent job, given the PR machinary of IIPM, slipping out of thier hands.

I stand by Gaurav and Rashmi and all who are with them against these foul mouthed rascals who have left their comments on Rashmi's blog and sprang up blogs overnight. Hats off to you folks for standing by your principles.
