    Abstract
    Economist Rajiv Kumar is Niti Aayog VC. The Centre on Saturday appointed economist Rajiv Ku mar as new vice chairman of Niti Aayog, opting for a home-grown technocrat to run the government's top policy think tank. He will take over from Arvind Panagariya, who is returning to Columbia University at the end of the month. A senior fellow at the Centre for Policy Research, Kumar has been involved in the selection of finance sector regulators like the RBI governor and Sebi chief, and is seen to be in tune with the BJP's economic ideology . He was among a handful of economists to have backed demonetisation. Vinod Paul, a professor of paediatrics at AIIMS, has been appointed member of Niti Aayog, an agency report said. Currently , Niti Aayog has three members--Bibek Debroy , V K Saraswat and Ramesh Chand. Rajiv Kumar is also chancellor of Gokhale Institute of Economics and Politics in Pune and the founding director of Pahle India Foundation, a non-profit research organisation specialising in policy-oriented research and analysis.
