Abhijit Banerjee
The Nobel Laureate for Economics for the year 2019
With his better half, Esther Duflo
And Michael Kremer
Awarded by the Swedish Academy, Stockholm
Is half-Bengali, half-Bombayan, half-Delhite,
Half-French, half-Indian and half-U.S.
As he used to live in Calcutta, Bombay, Delhi
And is half-Indian, half-French and half-American too
As he is of India living in America
And an American citizen of course
But his better half a French lady
And so a U.S. citizen
So he cannot cut his connections
With India, America and France.
