The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry has appointed Rajiv Kumar as the Secretary General.
Mr Kumar, a well-known economist and the author of several books, would succeed Mr Amit Mitra, who has become the Finance Minister of West Bengal.
He joined FICCI as Director General in October 2010. Earlier, he was Director and Chief Executive of the Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations.
“I see this as one of my most challenging assignments, which will not only require my total commitment, but will also serve as a substantial learning experience,” Mr Kumar said.
