I have noticed people here are more engaged with again ‘Indian’ versus ‘West’, rather than looking into the work of Prof Jagdish. Not to deny, I was happy and also intrigued to know about the Indian candidate for the Nobel. But to me, Prof Jagdish reflects more of American sentiments and logic, than any of India’s, advocating ‘free market’ primarily. In this era of neoliberal globalisation, if people like Prof Jagdish would not compete for such prize, I wonder who else will!!!
