Appointment of Nandan Nilekani and its impact on India

Nandan Nilekani appointment is not a small event. It shows the willingness of the Indian government to rope in expertise available in the private sector and maket it work for public good. The model has been there in the US for long, but India has tried this only once earlier (where Rajiv Gandhi got Sam Pitroda).

In my view, this is the real reform that India needs apart from what is widely talked about in the media. We need willingness to execute on time and then ability to get the resources from wherever needed.

This is a big positive for Congress which is showing willingness to get things done.
