Indicates he will not seek a reappointment at end of 3-year tenure
Chief Economic Advisor Krishnamurthy Subramanian has decided to return to academia at the completion of his three-year tenure in early December.
“To get an opportunity to serve one’s nation is an absolute privilege! Being provided the opportunity to contribute during a period of tremendous uncertainty and epochal change has been the lucky icing on the cake. So, while being conscious of the enormous privilege bestowed on me, I will happily return back to serving the country as a researcher after fulfilling my three-year commitment,” he said in a statement on Friday.
An IIT Kanpur and IIM Calcutta alumnus, Mr Subramanian was a professor at the Indian School of Business before his appointment as the CEA in December 2018. The CEA’s post had been vacant at the time for a few months after his predecessor Arvind Subramanian left citing ‘personal reasons’.
