Mr. Manmohan Singh might seem very calm and quite. His silence has often attracted much criticism rather than his deeds. But very few might be aware that our Ex-Prime Minister is an economics professor. After completing his masters in economics from Panjab University (PU), Singh has been appointed as a lecturer in same college. That was a way long back in 1957.
Manmohan has ultimately left the post in 1966 to be a part of UN secretariat. Now the Punjab University has requested Mr.Singh to deliver some lectures to the students and got a nod from him. “He is happy to be able to come here and interact with students," said PU vice-chancellor Prof Arun Kumar Grover. The ex-prime minister would be delivering some lectures through direct visits and some through video conferences. Students of PU can also visit him in Delhi. After Abdul Kalam, it’s good to watch one more leader taking up the responsibility of grooming the younger generation. Hope that Mr.Manmohan would speak a lot in his classes!
