About School

Maniram Dutta Baruah, popularly known as Maniram Dewan(1806-1858) was an Assamese aristocrat in British India. He was one of the first persons to establish tea gardens in Assam. While initially he was a loyal ally of the British East India Company, later he was hanged by the British for conspiring against them during the 1857 uprising.

The School of Management has been named after the great pioneer of freedom struggle and independent entrepreneur Maniram Dewan.Maniram Dewan worked for Indianisation nearly two and half centuries back. He played a highly significant role in building Assam’s/India's economic prospect of tea by navigating his business interest in a tumultuous socio-political environment.
The managerial lessons from Maniram Dewan’s principles and practices are still relevant in the LPG era. He deserves to be regarded as the first CEO of India. He stands as a unique example of a 19th century administrator/manager/business leader/CEO who applied contextual intelligence to a variety of complex decision-making situations.
