Deeply honoured to receive the University of Chicago Alumni Award for Professional Achievement. Dating back to 1941, this alumni honour has recognised at least 14 Nobel laureates, including Paul Samuelson, Herbert Simon, Gary Becker, Myron Scholes, and Claudia Goldin, and leaders and thinkers such as Carl Sagan, James Watson, Philip Kotler and Madeleine Albright. To be included in this lineage is profoundly humbling, especially as it reflects India’s growing intellectual presence on the global stage. This honour belongs not just to me, but to every Indian who believes our country can be a source of global ideas. I remain deeply grateful to @IITKanpur, @IIM_Calcutta, @UChicago @ISBedu for shaping my intellectual journey, Hon’ble PM @narendramodi for the opportunity to serve India, Gurudev @SriSri for his invaluable guidance since my PhD days at @UChicago, to my PhD advisors and mentors, and my parents and family.🙏
