Controversy[10]

The MDI Gurgaon landed into controversy after its ex-director presented documents which reflected dubious status of the institute. While the institute was established in 1973 as a joint venture where government controlled IFCI held 51 per cent stake, the institute recently submitted multiple affidavits stating itself as a private institute. Cases related to corruption in MDI are still in Indian courts.
