Approved for Release: 2019/08/20 C02066866 an _SE€R1E-F A liew Indian Finance Minister Appointed Sixty-two-year-old Morarji Desai, who became Indian finance minister in a general cabinet shuffle announced on 13 March, is a moderate socialist and a devout Hindu. He has risen rapidly since 1956 from the post of chief minister of Bombay State, through the Commerce and Industry Min- istry, to the important Finance Ministry. His new appoint- ment is a promotion, but the post is one of the most dif- ficult in the Indian cabinet. Desai, despite a lack of financial experience, may prove successful in his new job because of his widely recognized administrative talents and the fact that basic Five -Year-Plan financial policies are already fairly well established. Despite his promotion, Desai may have lost a covert battle for power with his senior in age and experience, Home Minister Pant. Apparently both men recognized the com- plexities of Indian financial problems and felt that the Home Ministry was a better steppingstone to the Prime Ministry. Desai, therefore, is rumored to have tried to force Pant into the Finance Ministry. ‘ ‘ 'SE€R'E-T 14 Mal‘ 53 AB5Fo'\7é?1?6r §€e'|E5éé;'§0?b75z§25Ebé55'éZsée Page 11
