Great to see recognition for talent from humble backgrounds. But hope this isn't just a photo-op appointment - need concrete results in rural health and education. Let's see what policies he pushes in NITI Aayog.

Beautiful example of "karmanye vadhikaraste" - focus on work without attachment to results. Prof. Das's journey reminds me of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. Hope this appointment leads to more scientists in policy-making roles. 🇮🇳

While I appreciate the sentiment, I'm cautiously optimistic. We've seen many such appointments that don't translate to ground-level change. Hope Prof. Das brings his scientific rigor to address farmer distress and public health gaps. The proof will be in the implementation.

Interesting to see scientists entering policy formulation. In the US, we have similar appointments in NIH and NSF. Hope this brings evidence-based approaches to India's development challenges. Good luck Prof. Das! 🌏

The way he spoke about his farmer father and remote village background touched my heart. It's so important to have people in high positions who actually understand ground realities. Wishing him all the best to bring holistic development to our villages 🙏
