ANAND: Amrita Patel, the bete noire of India's 'milkman' Verghese Kurein, has been elected as interim chairperson of the Institute of Rural Management, Anand (IRMA) by the institute's board.
"The board has unanimously accepted the resignation of Kurien," V Ramchandran, an IRMA board member and chairman Centre for Management, Thiruvananthapuram, told mediapersons after the board meeting here.
He said Patel has been elected by the board as the "interim chairperson" of IRMA.
The board has constituted a three-member committee headed by Patel to propose suitable names for a new Chairman, who will replace Kurien. "This committee has been asked to recommend the names within a month," Ramchandran said.
