The Maharashtra government on Thursday announced the establishment of a satellite campus of the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Nagpur on a 70-acre site at Moshi in Pimpri-Chinchwad, Pune.
The satellite campus will build on the institute’s esteemed reputation, bringing world-class management education to Pune’s dynamic industrial and academic ecosystem, sources said. Spearheaded by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and formalised by Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule, this development solidifies Maharashtra’s position as a leader in management education.
Chief Minister Fadnavis conducted multiple high-level meetings in Pune, Mumbai, and Nagpur over the past year to ensure its success.
The allocation of 70 acres in Moshi marks a pivotal step toward expediting the project’s progress.
Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule expressed his strong support for the initiative, stating, “As we commemorate the vibrant occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, the foundation for IIM Nagpur’s satellite campus in Pimpri-Chinchwad marks an auspicious milestone for our city. This industrial hub, home to residents from across the country and renowned for its robust Mumbai-Pune connectivity, will gain further distinction with this prestigious institution.”
