The IIT faculty expressed happiness over its hour-long meeting with HRD Minister Kapil Sibal to discuss the contentious issues but did not announce an end to their agitation.
The minister assured them that the Board of Governors of IITs can "deviate from the existing norms in exceptional cases to promote excellence".
"All issues between IIT faculty and HRD Ministry over pay structure have been resolved. Our guidelines are just norms and there can be flexibility or relaxation in exceptional cases," Sibal told reporters after the meeting.
The IIT faculty said the flexibility of the IIT system will help the institutes move forward.
