    Each year, some of the brightest young Indians join the civil services with the desire to serve the nation. But very soon they find out the steep challenges ahead as they need to battle, among other things, politicians who have other interests to serve. In "Just A Mercenary?: Notes from my Life and Career", former RBI Governor Duvvuri Subbarao chronicles his journey as a civil servant and offers aspiring civil servants some hard-learned lessons from his decades-long career.

    Karthik Muralidharan on how to accelerate India’s development
    Jun 4 2024
    It has been over 75 years since India attained independence and became the world's largest democracy. But there is still a huge unfinished task that is holding back India's economic growth potential, and that is the task of strengthening the capacity of the Indian state to deliver public goods and services to citizens, argues Karthik Muralidharan, the Tata Chancellor's professor of economics at the University of California San Diego. The author discussed the historic reasons behind India's poor state capacity, the elements of state capacity and also practical ways to boost state capacity in India in latest book "Accelerating India's Development: A State-led Roadmap for Effective Governance".

  • Ruskin Bond: Ninety and counting

    Ruskin Bond: Ninety and counting
    May 19 2024
    He started writing his first novel at the age of 17. When he was 23, he won the John Llewellyn Rhys Prize for The Room on the Roof. In his mid-20s, he returned to India and continued to do what he loved best — writing — while trying to make a living with other jobs. But, finally, he retreated to the place he was most at home — the hills of northern India — and continued to write. Yes, we are talking about Ruskin Bond, everyone’s favourite author. Today, on his 90th birthday, Bond continues to write: about hills, Nature, life and more. And we continue to read. Let’s celebrate this iconic writer by taking a look at just four books from his prolific output. Host: R. Krithika, Senior Deputy Editor, The Hindu. Edited by Jude Francis Weston and Sharmada Venkatasubramanian
