The New Indian Express Bengaluru|December 20, 2024

It stands testimony to his remarkable journey.

The museum has gold mohurs from the Mughal era, radiant silver coins and an astonishing collection whose value today could easily run into thousands of crores. So profound is this collection that even the Reserve Bank of India took notice.

Former RBI governor Shaktikanta Das was so taken with the museum that a scheduled 30-minute meeting extended into an unforgettable three-hour conversation with Rezwan Razack.
