Chairman of the K.G. Foundation G. Bakthavathsalam said India was a great country with diversity. Yet, one of the ills plaguing the country was corruption.

Mr. Justice Lakshmanan asked the youth to develop the habit of saving a portion of their income, spending time with family after work and contributing to social cause.

Mr. Nilekani said that 27 years ago, India had mainly three types of companies, large multinational companies, family-owned firms and public sector companies. Infosys was then started by a group of professionals. Its turnover today was close to $4.5 billion. “We had a vision to create a global and globally competitive company that would last for a long time.”


Mr. Viswanathan said that with a population of 1.1 billion, higher education should be accessible to all.
