  • Lal Jayawardena (1934 – 2004) – a Tribute on the First Anniversary of His Death1
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Lal Jayawardena (1934 – 2004) – a tribute on the first anniversary of his death Singh, Ajit University of Cambridge 14 June 2005 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/53370/ MPRA Paper No. 53370, posted 02 Feb 2014 18:43 UTC Lal Jayawardena (1934 – 2004) – A Tribute on the First Anniversary of his Death1 Lal Jayawardena, who died in Colombo in April 2004, was an intellectual, a lover of life and a humane and gifted leader. He was a top Sri Lankan civil servant of the post-independence era and an influential policy maker. Lal was educated in Sri Lanka and at King’s College, Cambridge, where he graduated with a double first in the Economics Tripos. He later did research for the PhD degree, also in Cambridge. He not only excelled academically, but was by all accounts a popular figure among his contemporaries, who included Amartya Sen, Richard Layard, Tam Dalyell, Mahbub ul Haque, Jagdish Bhagwati, Manmohan Singh and Geoff Harcourt. He was an “apostle” (a member of the famous, select club of undergraduates and dons). He is well remembered by his teachers, particularly Robin Marris and Ken Berrill. He also remained close to one of his Cambridge mentors, the late Nicolas Kaldor, with whom he shared an abiding interest in economic policy making. Lal’s contributions were recognised by his college which bestowed on him an Honorary Fellowship. He was his country’s ambassador to the European Community and to Belgium and the Netherlands between the late 1970s and the early 1980s, and High Commissioner to the UK in 1999 and 2000.

  • Testimony of Dr. Ajit Singh, Queens' College to the Devlin
    Appendix A: Testimony of Dr. Ajit Singh, Queens’ College to the Devlin Enquiry on the Sit-In in Cambridge University in February 1972 3 June 1972. Lord Devlin, High Steward of Cambridge University “Report on the Sit-in in February 1972 and its Consequences”, Cambridge University Reporter Wednesday, 14 February 1973, Vol CIII, Special No. 12; 84p. Background facts. When, where, the meetings immediately prior and leading up to the sit-in Lord Devlin took evidence in hearings and submissions on 1, 2 and 3 June in Cambridge. NB: Day One was 1 June. On Day Two, 2 June, in Speech and Evidence, p.41, Lord Devlin says: “Tere is one other possible witness in connec- tion with that incident and that is Dr Singh. Dr Singh was a member of the Faculty Board and who made the initial speech. I think I might ask Mr Whittaker to write to him or to contact him and to ask him whether © Te Editor(s) (if applicable) and Te Author(s), under exclusive license 339 to Springer Nature Switzerland AG, part of Springer Nature 2019 A.

John Barnes and Robert Neild gave their testimonies on 3 June; Ajit comes later, #83, but overnight, Ajit seems to have prepared the detailed and complex document that follows — clearly something rubbed of from being around his father, the High Court judge.
