TIL Desk/Business/New Delhi-Outgoing RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan said on Wednesday that he was open to staying a bit longer to complete the unfinished work of bank clean up, but is perfectly happy to go.
Rajan, who had in June decided against seeking a second term once his 3-year tenure ends next month, said the process of dialogue with the government did not reach a stage where he could have agreed to stay on.
He said he was however never worried about reappointment or a future career in government, and did the best in the interest of the country, adding he was the “best team player”. Rajan, who plans to return to academia after his term ends on September 4, said his stays at university made him “pretty thick-skinned”, but the attacks then were not abominable.
