Hi Snehal,

I have read your article and you have hit a v controversial topic!

Please answer to yourself:

1. Where do you think all knowledge and information comes from? By joining a MBA course does a student learns everything as if its magic?

2. For instance take your example, while covering the IIT Techfest your have quoted lines which were WORD BY WORD either from Techfest page on WikiPedia or the TechFest.org website. But it was fair and allowed because you had met the people behind the event and attended the event from start to end. (so some reference is allowed)

The point here is no project will be done without some reference material and guidance. Its always a good thing to see what others have touched upon before giving your take on it! When it comes to a community site like Management Paradise all users are expected to contribute to the community. ANd hence the rules are in place.

There are numerous threads where people discuss and debate their ideas and projects, why? to learn and to IMPROVE!

I see nothing wrong with that, and hope you will get the point that a MBA is no good without knowledge. I have seen Graduates being paid more than MBA's.

Internet is a great medium. A powerful resource. And with great power comes great responsibility. You cannot take away the options & power from the people because some of them are misusing it or are not responsible!
