Prof. Vishwanath Pandit Memorial Lecture 2025

Prof. S Mahendra Dev Delivers Inaugural Prof. Vishwanath Pandit Memorial Lecture on India’s Economic Future.

The Department of Humanities & Social Sciences, SSSIHL, organized the inaugural Prof. Vishwanath Pandit Memorial Lecture in honour of the late Prof. Vishwanath Pandit (1939–2024), an eminent economist and the 8th Vice-Chancellor of SSSIHL. The event commemorated Prof. Pandit’s lasting contributions to Indian economics and the Institute, including the founding of its Department of Economics in 2001.

The Keynote

The keynote lecture was delivered by Prof. S Mahendra Dev, Chairman, Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister, on the theme “Future of India: Growth, Inclusiveness and Sustainability.” His comprehensive address examined India’s post-independence economic journey, development goals for 2047, and critical priorities such as poverty reduction, employment generation, agricultural reform, and climate resilience. The lecture was followed by a vibrant Q&A session with students.
