"In India, reality means corruption, dirty roads, pollution and many times no power... Reality in Singapore means clean roads, no pollution and lots of power," NR Narayana Murthy said.
Infosys co-founder NR Narayana Murthy gave students a 'reality check' during an address at GMR Institute of Technology in Andhra Pradesh yesterday. Taking Singapore as a yardstick, he told the students that it depends on them to work towards a new reality.
"In India, reality means corruption, dirty roads, pollution and many times no power," Mr Murthy said, according to a press release from GMR. He then went on to add that the reality in Singapore means "clean roads, no pollution and lots of power".
"Therefore, it is your responsibility to create that new reality," he told the students at the institute.
Founded in 1997 and run by the GMR Group's Corporate Social Responsibility arm, the GMR Varalakshmi Foundation, is celebrating its 25th year.
