I'm glad to read about controversey visualising Narayanamurthy to serve the people of India as her president and I hereby present my views.
1. It's true that Narayanamurthy is a successful businessman with tonnes of money- is that the reason he wants to be the president?. I haven't seen any news item in north american media where Bill Gates aspired to be American president or UN secretary general !!.
2. The post of president involves expertise in natioanal and international affairs to safeguard our interest. Unfortunately Narayanamurthy might not be able to - he even felt that singing the national anthem at bangalore might have "embarrassed" company employees of foreign origin. Little can be said about his ability to safeguard the interests of one billion indian people.
I wish Naranamurthy's utilises his ability as a successful entrepreneur to taken the suceess of indian software industry to new heights !!.
