Looking at the above message, it seems that the website is hacked by ex-student of the institute. However, we will have wait till the official confirmation from educational authorities.

Update: After quick replies from my twitter friends, I tried to figure out the whole issue again. And, in my brief research, I found that IIM Ranchi website is NOT hacked by any hacker. The domain has been registered by an unknown user with invalid details. [Check the whois of www.iimranchi.in]
