Washington: U.S. President Barack Obama has appointed yet another Indian American, Gargee Ghosh, to a key administration post as member of his Global Development Council.

Ghosh is currently the director of Policy Analysis and Financing (PAF) at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. PAF is the foundation's internal policy shop focused on priorities, trends and innovations in international development financing. Its work spans aid policy, country financing and engagement with international financial institutions.

At over two dozen, the Obama administration has more Indian Americans working in high places than any other administration.

"I am pleased to announce that these experienced and committed individuals have agreed to join this Administration, and I look forward to working with them in the months and years ahead," Obama said, announcing Ghosh's appointment with several others.
