NEW DELHI - Indian politicians and academics cheered the Nobel economics prize awarded on Monday to Indian-born American Abhijit Banerjee, whose proud mother told visitors crowding into her apartment that he came from “a family of economists”.
Banerjee was recognised for his work on fighting poverty and some said the award was a repudiation of policies pursued by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Nonetheless, Modi offered praise. “Congratulations to Abhijit Banerjee ... He has made notable contributions in the field of poverty alleviation,” he said in a Tweet.“Big day for every Indian. Heartiest congratulations to eminent economist Abhijit Banerjee ... Work on poverty alleviation gets highest endorsement,” Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said.
