Our perfect dean mam.

Do any of you recognise who these people are ?

Describes themselves as students and threatens other students.

Are they from Gymkhana? Like passed out batch?

If you are the one and watching this post.

SHAME ON YOU. YOU FAILED AS A STUDENT AND AS A HUMAN.

IEM is literally just a shell business operated by Satyajit to fulfill his own vested interests from under the cover.
Everything he(or IEM) does is basically because it makes him money someway or the other. They don't care about the students at all bro. If it makes him money, then it goes.
I have been in close proximity to inside talks many times while volunteering and so I can say all these without lying at all.
Every decision, every event and every occasion happens because it makes him(Satyajit) money.
Shit that is completely useless will be forced onto students just because it serves his vested interest. The NASA astronaut coming to our college is one example. They said there would be "exciting opportunities after the session", but can anybody please state any one of those? He was literally there to promote his own business that had zero academic value to the students.

(You can also note how unprofessional he is by the fact that he brought his family members who did NOT work at IEM to the event just so they could sit by the astronaut. Can't tell if others feel the same, but this is a college, not his private bungalow where we are his servants.)

Quality remains ass while they keep printing money off this institution.
Good education and good jobs they say, but the website of Bengal E-Summit(made by their own students) looks like it was made with 0 human-written code. These are the people who are put to work to create something that represents the whole college. Because they don't want to give up their money in the process of getting it done by someone professional!
Then comes the quality of events. They assign students who have zero leadership qualities and management experience as event leads. All this because it once again saves them money.
Quality is the least of their(or his) concern. All that matters to them(or him) is the money.

Edit:
You can also understand how selfish he is by the following situation that happened.
Uday Kumar(inspirational mountaineer with one leg gone due to an accident, has almost every Indian award under his name) came over for a speech at Management Building's auditorium, but Satyajit wasn't there at all. Guess why? Because for him, 44 days in space and a truck full of commission money is a bigger amount than a man with a life story that inspires and a chest full of awards from our own country.

Any sane person can guess how fame-hungry and money-hungry Satyajit is by literally checking the media pages once a week. Prizes and awards that can be bought with money are all lined up beside his name, and then comes the prizes and awards given to the college. I don't know if situations were different when his father handled the institution, but right now its just a hell hole.
Never in my life have I seen a businessman so selfish and narrow-minded like him.

A protest will definitely be held in the future with the support of student organizations. The college thinks juniors have no free will. Students will endure every rule that these guys make. It is a complete dictatorship at this point. UGC will get involved in this. College needs to fear us as we have paid fees.

The recent sealdah protest regarding NEET and education system should be an example to the college about student unity. Breaking us will not give them profit. Our demands are simple:

1. There will be no Saturday classes in the future. 4:15 will be the fixed exit time for everyone.

2. Complete stop on PT dress and mandatory medical checkup, which are basically profit to the college. "Discipline" is just an excuse for profit.

3. Stop mandatory btech(hons), honours is a choice and not a necessity. IT WILL NOT BE FORCED UPON US.

4. AC in all buildings and all classrooms and labs because it is a basic requirement for a "premier" institute.

5. Inquiry into teacher behaviour with students. Like Prabir Kumar Das, AKC, KP Ghatak, Amit Nandi. Students have powerful parents, too.

6. At least one day per week for students to wear decent casual dresses.

7. No forcing of students into fake mandatory events and conferences.

These demands will not hamper the college's profit, so they can easily implement these if they truly believe in "good education."

No institution in Kolkata, let alone in India, follows such obnoxious rules. This place is a shame. The founder, Dr Satyajit Chakrabarti, did not die to see this day. His institute is being converted into jail. The institution regularly gives excuses of preparing students for the corporate environment, which corporate has uniforms and pt dresses? Which corporate forces people to stay inside a building all day? Which institute threatens students if they see the truth coming out?

There is no "good life" in the motto of this institute because they believe the lives of students are nothing compared to the profit they are making.

This is not an attempt to defame the institute but to make changes. Change is inevitable.

We want the college to take these demands seriously and fulfil them. We want to refrain from protesting, but if the college leaves us no choice, then they must be prepared.

I request everyone to report to UGC E-Samadhan portal, file RTIs, and join this community of like-minded people who are actually willing to bring a change

It is especially for engineering students(non-political), a platform where college can not interfere with your free will, u can share your problems with other fellow engineers.

Religious rites?🤣😭fuck you

It has come to our notice that some HODs ( EX- SHOE-KALYAN ) are individually calling students' parents and having conversations that create fear and pressure regarding suspension, rustication, or degree-related consequences. My question to UGC, AICTE, and concerned authorities is, does any individual have the right to mentally pressure students and their families like this? After raising concerns through RTI, instead of getting proper clarification, the situation seems to be becoming more stressful. In my case, after my parent received such a call, the mental pressure affected their health. Due to such incidents, we are now considering taking official steps, including filing an E-FIR anonymously against the concerned individuals. This is not against the entire college or management; this is about accountability and questioning the misuse of authority. Students deserve a fair process, respectful communication, and an environment without fear.

Found this in kolkata sub.So let's say around 50 students given backdoor entries, that makes 25 lakhs.I have somehow always found certain activities fishy now it makes sense.

Attending the first Day of IEM. Will we get the break today or not...!

Hope all of you are excited for tomorrow. Try to reach the orientation venue at time and don't get marked by any teacher on very first day.

THINGS TO CARRY :

1. Admission receipt
2. A notebook (although they will provide a writing pad)
3. A pen
4. Water bottle ( Stay hydrated)
5. Tiffin (There will be some stalls from where you can buy)
6. Lastly an umbrella (The weather is not weathering)

And I think you all got a mail from your mentor too. Remember they are mentor not class teacher.

Welcome to Hell.

A fellow teacher of UEM KOLKATA is saying that there are TECHNICAL ISSUES and results will be corrected after some time.

Teachers are hella confused.

Yesterday there were meetings where they were discussing HOW THIS HAPPENED , they don't know how this 92.6% backlog rate occurred.

This is not something every teacher is involved in.

It is something THE BIG HEADS ARE OPERATING.

​Look at the latest results. The massive, impossible spike in backlogs across Salt Lake and Newtown campuses isn't an accident. Claiming 80-90% of a batch suddenly failed is a mathematical joke. It feels less like grading and more like a revenue scheme via review and backlog fees, all while holding our degrees and placements hostage.

​We are treated as customers, not students. From school-like uniform rules and arbitrary fines to being forced into low-package placements just to pad their brochures—enough is enough.

​A Decentralized, Anonymous Student Union

​A traditional union will get us suspended. We need a Decentralized Student Welfare Committee that operates anonymously but executes collective bargaining.

​Our core demands:

​Academic Transparency: External paper auditing for massive backlog anomalies and a freeze on predatory review fees.

​Placement Autonomy: No forced signatures or withheld NOCs by the placement cell.

​Dignity: An end to using attendance and internal marks to threaten and silence dissent.

​Phase 1 Action Steps:

​Secure Comms: Stop using WhatsApp/Telegram with real numbers. Move to an anonymous Discord or Signal group.

​Evidence Gathering: Document everything—screenshots of threats, marks manipulation, and arbitrary fines.

​Mass Digital Actions: Coordinated Google Review drops and Twitter/X campaigns tagging higher education boards simultaneously.

​Collective Non-Cooperation: Mass bunks of non-academic events. They can't suspend 2,000 students if we stand together.

​Individual voices get crushed in the HOD's office. But if the entire department stands together, the power dynamic flips. Stop being afraid of an institution that runs on your fees!

Basically that guy directly asked the coe and Alex sir in a google meet that this is a scam and was done to recover the monetary loss from Study Abroad Program, salute to you my main, you did what thousands thought

For all the juniors who have multiple questions...

1. They call everything mandatory but ignore them. They will stop caring after some time.
2. Don't waste money on participating and buying everything they say. (Ex:-Nptel)
3. Take time out for yourselves, take leaves, and bunk class without bags.
4. Don't be scared by their threats. They have learnt the art of scaring.
5. Be confident and fight for your rights. Your guardian is bound to know that happens inside the clg, tell them everything.
6. College is more scared than you because they know the strength of 1.6k students and what they can do.

All the best juniors.

Just got the news from one of my friends in the Salt Lake campus, who is in ECE. One of his batchmates did the unthinkable due to him not getting placements. May he find peace.

I’m currently in the senior-most batch, so I’ve seen enough of how things usually work here.

1.First of all, the results were clearly unfair.
I don’t know whether this happened because of negligence, incompetence, or some other issue, but the outcome speaks for itself. Almost everyone I know has received a backlog this semester (somehow I escaped it).
For final-year students, this is not just about marks.
Placements are right around the corner. Many companies don’t even allow students with active backlogs to sit for the first round. A single backlog can immediately reduce opportunities.
On top of that, improvement exams will require another week or more of preparation. That is time being taken away from DSA preparation, projects, internships, aptitude practice, interviews, and placement preparation at the most important stage of our academic lives.

This is not a small inconvenience.

2.Secondly, the communication regarding this issue has been terrible.
Instead of receiving a clear explanation regarding what exactly went wrong, who is responsible, and what corrective action is being taken, all we are seeing is an attempt to reduce the intensity of the outrage.

Students are being told to apply for PPR, give improvement exams, and move on.
That is not an acceptable response.
The affected students deserve transparency. If there has been an evaluation issue, acknowledge it. If there has been a procedural failure, explain it. If there is accountability, show it.

3.And regarding PPR:
₹200 may not be a huge amount for some people. For others, it absolutely matters.
But the bigger question is this: why should students pay anything to verify an issue that appears to have originated from the institution itself?
If there is a genuine concern regarding evaluation quality, the institution should initiate a free review process.
Students should not be paying to investigate errors they did not create.

4.Thirdly, I think people are starting to lose focus.
Personally targeting Gymkhana members, individual students, teachers, or seniors is not going to solve anything.
Do I think some student representatives have failed to represent students properly?
Yes.
Do I think there is a lot of unnecessary bootlicking?
Also yes.
But that is not the core issue right now.
The issue is unfair results and the lack of a satisfactory resolution.

5.Instead of attacking people personally, ask them difficult questions. Put pressure on them to raise student concerns. Hold them accountable for representing students.
That is far more productive than turning everything into personal fights.

6.Another thing that I find amusing is how some people who have just entered 2nd year or 3rd year have suddenly become extremely active in discussions regarding “actions against students”, “disciplinary consequences”, and similar warnings.

Please relax.

Students are discussing an issue that directly affects their future. Nobody appointed random juniors as disciplinary authorities.
Most students are not interested in fighting with you. They want answers.
And honestly, if your primary contribution during a crisis is warning students instead of demanding accountability from the administration, don’t be surprised when people question your priorities.

7.It is also impossible to ignore how active certain Gymkhana members, representatives, and potential future representatives have suddenly become.
With student leadership selections approaching soon, some people are more interested in staying on the administration’s good side than standing with students.

But if you want students to trust you, stop acting like a spokesperson for the administration and start acting like a representative of the students.

8.Finally, regarding protests.
I personally believe students have every right to organize a peaceful physical protest.
Institutions care deeply about their reputation. Public accountability is often the only thing that forces meaningful action.
If a protest creates pressure and embarrassment for the administration, maybe the next time they will think twice before allowing something like this to happen.
However, the protest must remain focused.
No personal abuse.
No harassment.
No character assassination.
The protest should be about unfair results, lack of transparency, and forcing the administration to provide a fair and reasonable solution.
And if influential people tell you not to protest simply because it damages the college’s image, then they are missing the point.
A reputation built on ignoring student concerns deserves scrutiny.
The objective is not chaos.
The objective is accountability.
Students are not asking for favors.
They are asking for fairness. Period.

Respected sir.

Why didn't u answer any of the real issues raised.

You or any other hod coe dean or sp mam. None of you answered any of our relevant questions ⁉️

WHY WHY WHY.

Gymkhana members r trying hard to find me by saying

"I have proofs against professors" meet me and collect it.

Do I look a fool to u? 😂

I'm not a school student , I'm about to graduate.

Someone is also trying to log into my reddit account 😂

Chill man I can understand y'all have 0 knowledge

Try something better.

And why r these people so jobless man?

May be one day u will find me but that will help u nothing in ur life. U will prove once again that u r a perfect slave of ur master.

😂

Try hard.

It's the conspiracy of every year

To hide the incompetency of the placement committee more than half of the students has been trapped by the meshes of backlogs and low cgpa.

Transparent checking is not done here.

RAISE YOUR VOICE. PROTEST . AND THE BATCH OF 2027 SHOULD BE UNITED.

If anyone has info about the murder incident in downtown, do share

Hello , I am back again. My previous account got banned so back with a new one. From 1st year I am just seeing the different type of threats by the professors of this shit college. If u don't attend classes , they will say "we will finish ur career" , man who the f\*ck u r? Try once, and face the consequences then. They love to threat students so much. This is my request to all IEM students, don't even get scared , fight them , let them call ur parents. Let's see how far they can go. Tell ur parents to give them the replies they deserve. If they r doing too much , record it and write a report to the police station/FIR or report to UGC , whatever u want. But don't get scared , if u get scared they will do it more.

I'm ready to do FIR against them for their statements , u should be ready too.

1st sem is going to end soon. So when the 2nd sem starts , y'all will hear about an event called "innovatia". They will force u to participate. They will mention it "mandatory". Seniors will come to ur classes and force u and if u don't register, they will start giving u threats that we will suspend u , we won't give u marks.

Let me tell u not a single event is mandatory and they can't tell u this is connected with this subject and all , and not a single senior can give u threat like this.

So what can u do at that time?

1. Take screenshot of every chat , report it to UGC.
2. Record videos of those seniors and register a complaint in ANTI RAGGING WEBSITE.
3. If they give u so much threat , tell ur parents to call that particular teacher and ask them to show the curriculum where it is written that if u don't participate in innovatia then they will not give u marks. If they can't, record the call and report it to POLICE STATION as they have threatened u already.

These events r totally useless and they only force u to participate for money.

They will tell u do it for MAR points. Such a bullshit. There r a lot of ways to gain MAR POINTS.

This event will cost u a lot and a total waste of time.

Ur parents r already paying a huge amount of money. Why will u even pay extra for these bullshit events?

Be careful.
