- Honoured and humbled to have been given the incredible opportunity to serve the country again - this time as CEO @NITIAayog Deeply grateful to Hon’ble PM @narendramodi for another chance to work under his leadership towards a transformed India.
- A great honour and privilege to serve under Hon’ble PM @narendramodi these last 4.5 years. His stunning announcement of the @swachhbharat mission on Aug 15, 2014 blew us away as we watched on TV in Hanoi. So lucky to get this job. He was kind enough to meet Indira and me today.
- A privilege to take charge last week in Washington DC as Executive Director, World Bank, representing India, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Sri Lanka.
- Happy Father’s Day to my dad, Air Marshal PV Iyer (retd). At 88, he runs 10 km a day and works out regularly at the gym. He continues to be an inspiration to our entire family and to all his friends, young and old. #HumFitTohIndiaFit
