The policy maker
MGK Menon would always be remembered mainly for his stint as secretary at the
DoE. The renowned scientist was at the helm of a department that had a mandate
to control the developing computing industry and, unfortunately, for many years
DoE was a word of ridicule and revile amongst the country's fledgling IT
sector. He took his rightful position in the annals of Indian IT history when he
was appointed as a scientific advisor to Atal Behari Vajpayee and recommended
setting up a separate ministry of IT. He has been responsible for framing many
of the policies for the IT industry in India. Hopefully, these would stand the
test of time and his role at DoE during the license raj would gradually fade
away.
