FORMER President of the US, Barack Obama, retired at the age of
55 years, the youngest president to retire at that age when the political life
of many politicians starts. President of India Pranab Mukherjee will retire at
the age of 82 in July 2017. Obama has launched barackfoundation.org. So, why
should Pranab lag behind? Friends of Pranab da are keen to launch a Pranab
Mukherjee Foundation. This foundation is likely to be propagate and educate the
future generations on the ideals for which Pranab Mukherjee stood in his long
political career. The foundation will also have various fellowships, and
undertake research on foreign policy, defence policy, energy policy–areas where
Pranab Mukherjee devoted his entire life. Faculty will comprise professors and
lecturers. Many industrialists and business houses have begun to contribute
from their corporate social responsibility funds. It is learnt that Omita Paul
will be Chief Executive Officer of the foundation. Venu Rajamony, currently
Press Secretary to the President of India, a career diplomat, may also join the
foundation.
