Anil Swarup Sir is one of India's most respected former civil servants — an IAS officer of the 1981 batch who served the nation for 38 years across some of the most challenging assignments, including as Coal Secretary and Secretary of School Education & Literacy, Government of India. He is the architect of the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY), recognised globally by the World Bank, ILO, and Brookings Institution as one of the finest health insurance schemes ever designed for the poor. After retirement, he founded the "Nexus of Good" movement to spotlight positive change-makers across India, and authored landmark books including "Not Just A Civil Servant", "Ethical Dilemmas of a Civil Servant", "Encounters with Politicians", and his latest, "You Can Make It Happen." His work has shaped how an entire generation of bureaucrats, aspirants, and citizens thinks about governance, ethics, and the courage required to do the right thing. In a country where the honest officer is assumed to be suffering and the dishonest one is assumed to be thriving, this conversation breaks open every myth about Indian bureaucracy, politics, and public life — and gives you the raw, lived playbook nobody teaches at the academy.
