“Energy Engineering started first in IIT Kharagpur in 1983 and mine was the third batch. It was definitely not a popular course. It was basically an amalgamation of nuclear, mechanical, chemical engineering, etc. But I don't think it was a big factor because if we look, most of them joined the IT sectors and not the energy sector.” IfsThinkingFirstsLooksBigsCoursesEnergyMinesThirdsNuclearFactorsEtcChemicalsEngineeringAmalgamationChemical Engineering Author:Ramon Magsaysay
“The problem is the policy makers don't have practitioners in the policy team. You won't make an IT policy without consulting a Narayan Murthy or Nandan Nilekani. But for energy, people think they know everything and they know what to do for it. That's how the policies are created in Delhi and that needs to change.” PeopleThinkingKnowsNeedsProblemEnergyTeamPolicyMakersNeed A ChangeConsultingDelhiPolicy Makers Author:Ramon Magsaysay
