An Indian jeweller Ando Keshav Shenoy has been appointed as special advisor for South Asia to the New York Governor George Pataki recently.
An official release issued here said that Shenoy has been appointed particularly to increase the industrial relations between New York and India. This is the first time that an Indian has got an opportunity to work in a high New York administration post.
Shenoy had worked as coordinator for the meeting between former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Pataki. He is also a recipient of the Governor's award for best work in 2005.
His appointment assumes importance, considering Pataki's scheduled visit to India during February-March this year.
After assuming charge, Shenoy said Indians should come forward to invest in New York and New York businessmen should do likewise in India.
Shenoy had migrated to New York from Mumbai in 1990. He was instrumental in persuading Pataki for enhancing relations with India since 1994.
