Participated in my own little manner as India unleashed free market forces and showed some confidence to open its doors to the mightiest in the world. It was a perfect time to be at Reuters starting real time coverage of money and bonds market as also the currency markets.

The Best buro chief in the world was always there like the Rock of Gibraltar, helping, nudging, guiding and gently helping us achieve what otherwise one would have easily given up.
