Remember it like Singh

NITI Aayog Vice-Chairman Rajiv Kumar shared an anecdote that spoke of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s extraordinary memory, while sharing the dais with him at an event to celebrate 25 years of the National Stock Exchange. Apparently, just before the ceremony kicked off, the two were having a conversation backstage when Singh asked Kumar, “Were you not part of the 1991-92 team that put together the blueprint of the NSE?” “That is how sharp his memory is,” said Kumar, who was economic advisor in the department of economic affairs between 1992 and 1995.
