After that the Management education has become popular in the last century all over the world because management degree holders are much in demand; naturally, this leads to an increase in the demand for B-Schools all over India including   Maharashtra. Later on, there has been a mushroom growth of B-schools coupled with a dearth of qualified teachers. As a result, many B-schools promoted the appointment of low merited/salaried teachers on the plea that this was an ad-hoc arrangement and the same would be overcome shortly by enrolling qualified teachers. However, many B -schools have been running with these ad-hoc arrangements for years together since the teachers are available at low salaries, although they are being shown to be paid as per norms. Naturally, these schools have remained un-preferred by the aspirants of MBA and they looked as Low graded B-Schools. In contrast to this, for a few well-performed Star B-Schools, it has been indispensable and prestigious to impart qualitative teaching to fashion skilled personnel for Business and industry. Such B-Schools emphasis on quality teaching for nourishing, endurance, and development of their ambiance equipped with all the facilities and satisfied teachers. Naturally, these High graded B-Schools have been enrolling meritorious students.  As a result, the B –Schools are informally categorized ”Top” and “Low” graded leaving options to promote many B-schools between these two i.e. “High” and “Low” Graded B –schools, the forthcoming text explains this categorization. AICTE, however, directs to all the B-schools to keep their teachers qualified /meritorious and properly paid /satisfied for generating the contented and gratified students by developing optimum academic and corporal input. (AICTE Brochure,2019) .In reality, the personal relations between owners of B-schools  (?)  and employees of AICTE, University, and DTE authorities are instrumental to overlook functioning of B-schools and that causes the superfluous growth of Low Graded B schools which are the source to generate dissatisfaction of their employees. Hence there is a need for faceless digital control over the B-school functioning. This will not only initiated multi- flung academic development of B-schools but also generates satisfied employees and students ER -
