The Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) has not been able to recruit any faculty members from the Scheduled Tribe (ST) category between January 2021 and June 2023, despite the institute conducting a special drive to recruit persons from the reserved categories.
In reply to an RTI application filed by an activist, IIMB had revealed that in that period, 585 members from general category, 125 from Scheduled Caste (SC) category and 39 candidates from ST category had applied for jobs.
Out of these IIMB made offers to 23 general category candidates (out of which 17 joined), two offers to SC candidates (both joined) and no offers to ST candidates.
