On a personal trip to Turkey-decided to meet an economist with research interests close to mine. Did a cold call email to Murat Kirdar muratguraykirdar.weebly.com who not only met me, but also treated me to an amazing lunch. Lots of chat about human capital! Lovely time! #EconTwitter

Shameful behavior by Turkish Airlines to cancel the ticket of ny brother anandaroop mukhopadhyay at the last instance- he was coming to Istanbul from San Francisco to meet me- now I will reach and he will not. i had asked him to buy the ticket. I hope Turkish Airlines rebooks him!!

Talking to young people is one of most rewarding things in my career. I doubt if anyone else gets anything from it though :)

It was a pleasure to host Nishith Prakash and Abhiroop Mukhopadhyay in our mountains! Behind every instrument and data point, there's a story of how it all started. I'm beyond excited for this holistic #evaluation and #measurement or our work!

Always a pleasure to talk to young people.

Lucky to have met such amazing young men! Infectious enthusiasm-one feels the pulse of indian youth talking to them. All the best! #EconTwitter

Reversal of roles- when your student (Akanksha Aggarwal) insists you read this amazing book by Karthik Muralidharan #EconTwitter

Bought a standing desk from Nilkamal Ltd. in 2019. Not working. Called customer care. They sent a third party who said motor gone (doesn't move up or down) but its old model. No replacement possible. How can this be ?? In 5 yrs!! Bad customer service. Pls act!!

KN Raj wrote India's first five-year plan when he was 26. He went on to become one of India's most respected economists and institution builders. Yet, as we near his birth centenary, we have forgotten him entirely. My piece

A great opportunity to present papers for India based researchers- both faculty and students. The focus is more on causal work than descriptive (the TIES and ISLE are any day better for the latter)- so if you like and do causal work, pls do submit. x.com/SERI_Network/s…

#MSQE students at #EconISIDelhi doing well in their careers! #EconTwitter

Very nice presentation by Shahir Safi from New Economic School on the economics of referrals from weak and strong ties #EconTwitter
