The best laid plans...

On how the Indian economy after independence came to be influenced by one statistician in "... an academic institute in the quiet outskirts of a city far away from the capital...". Excerpted from the book "Planning Democracy: How a Professor, an Institute and an Idea Shaped India", by Nikhil Menon. (Link for story here.)

Good sentences: 

Ultimately, the impact of planning on statistics led to a statistician shaping the Plan.

and 

The Professor left India in order to be relevant in India.
