132. The appointment of S Gurumurthy as non-official director in the Reserve Bank of India is the first instance of a RSS ideologue making it to the high offices of Mint Street â€" also a signal to India’s financial capital that the Sangh brand of Swadeshi economics will have more than just a say in the way thing are done. The custom made search has often been for the renowned desi economist, who had earned his name on the global stage. Raghuram Rajan and Arvind Subramanian fell in that category.Gurumurthy, on the other hand, is swadeshi, who has championed a different sort of self-contained economics through his Swadeshi Jagran Manch.He is a chartered accountant, who is considered brilliant within the grand Sangh parivar but not necessarily in sync with the reformer economists who have guided policy in post-reform India.Gurumurthy has also hit the headlines of late for the wrong reasons. The Delhi High Court pulled him up in March for putting out “speculative” posts on Judge S Murilidhar through Twitter after he had granted interim relief to Karti Chidambaram in the INX Media case. The court observed that being the editor of a magazine(Tughlaq) that has a wide readership in Tamil Nadu, Gurumurthy should have cared to check the facts. Not just that, but Gurumurthy also fell prey to the fake news that the new Rs. 2000 currency note had a chip embedded to it. As a big votary of the government’s demonetization drive, he urged all to spread the word.
