AMITABH KANT
CEO, NITI Aayog

A true patriot is one who synergises bright ideas with dedicated efforts towards serving the national interest, and Amitabh Kant has spearheaded initiatives for this cause. As CEO of Niti Aayog, and under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi, the IAS officer has taken charge of several national programmes aimed at catalysing India’s economic growth. While Make in India and Digital India may be the front-running initiatives of the present administration, Kant has also imparted his services to the Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion.
