IIMs dont appeal to Gujarat?s CAT topper 

As students across the country are crossing their fingers to get into one of the IIMs, Gujarat's top scorer in the Common Admission Test (CAT) this year, Vipul Tyagi, does not intend to study in any of these coveted institutes.

Rakhee Verma, a friendly teacher of Christ Nagar School in Thiruvananthapuram, is not in favour of punishments....

The contest was in four rounds - an informal debate round, a mock UN summit round, a classical debate round and finally...
