I think India has several advantages in the knowledge sector, in the software sector.

The primary difference that I have found between the system of education in India and other countries, particularly the U.S., is that they focus on problem solving and relating theories to reality around them. These two things are lacking in the education system in India.

Investment in training is a huge necessity for knowledge-based corporations.

All developmental activities for the common man such as education, healthcare, shelter and food distribution should be handled by reputed private sector institutions. It should be a competitive market in order to prevent the formation of monopolies.

Rahul Gandhi is very idealistic and a very decent human being. He has real concerns for the downtrodden.

I have known Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla for a long time. He is a good man. He is a decent man.

Although we have enough healthcare support, often it doesn't reach the poor and needy. In this scenario, technology is the best solution.

Effective use of technology is important to deliver healthcare. By leveraging technology, you can bring down lack of access and cost of healthcare.

If the U.S. became the undisputed superpower that it is today, it was primarily because of its technology, whether it is in transportation, agriculture, high-tech industry, medicine, etc.

I do not believe in any legacy. The past is dead and gone.

Infosys demonstrated to the world that an Indian company could implement standards of quality, operations, finance that compare with the best. That is a legacy I am happy with.

Indian IT corporations have made work in the U.S. much more efficient by enhancing their productivity and quality of work. We have helped to add sufficient value to the corporations in the U.S.
