Public Policy 101

-
Indian State has struggled for a very long time to decide the When, What and How's of creating an effective public policy.  More often than not the State tends to overestimate its capacity or overuse its powers. The result? A long series of policy interventions that are either not needed or not backed by enough data or are outright failures in implementation.  The brilliant book - "   In The Service of Republic " by Vijay Kelkar and Ajay Shah is aimed at bridging this major gap in our ecosystem - a formal guideline for State intervention in Markets or Society.  Vijay Kelkar and Ajay Shah bring their vast experience in economics and public policy domain to create this masterpiece.  While every politician, civil servant, academic and any policy wonk should have this book by her bedside, I am trying to capture a quick gist of this book here. Again, this is just a trailer and may not do a complete justice to the fantastic movie that this book is! A.   Fo...

Attracting Global Talent and Retaining Home Grown Talent in India for Sustainable Growth

  While India produces world-class STEM talent, we face an unprecedented challenge: our brightest minds are increasingly choosing opportunities abroad, and global innovators bypass India for other emerging markets. The implications of failing to address these challenges extend far beyond individual career trajectories.

The issue of brain drain or attracting talent cannot be seen in isolation from other issues. Any country can attract talent if and only if it gets its fundamentals right and there are no shortcuts.

This is going to be a long journey. But a good starting point may be to a...

Random Thoughts from Ivory Tower - Cover Page

-
Dear Reader, Welcome to the den of my thoughts! I am NOT a policy expert or have any formal training in the field of policy formulation.  I have seldom made my hands dirty with any kind of social activities. I am a mere observer who has seen and lived the Indian society for last few decades.  Basically, these are random thoughts and observations from ten thousand feet. The views expressed here are from those experiences including the views from domain experts in this field whom I follow. There is no claim of originality in these thoughts, rather they are unoriginal mostly. I like to see myself as a balanced rationalist and the views are leaning in that direction due to my natural biases.  You have NO compulsion to read these random thoughts or take any actions.  If you are a very sensitive, proud nationalist who feel extremely happy with the way things shaped up in India in last century, you are advised to STAY AWAY from this space. For others, welcome again and hope...
