We as Indians seem to be over solicitous of the white mans sensitivities. I wonder if they would have extended the same courtesies to NM. I wonder why it didn't cross NM's mind to be aware of his own country men's sensitivities in the matter. Or maybe, its an expression of his gratefulness to his foreign partners for their benevolence in allowing him his present place in the sun. Doesn't all this smack of a certain arrogance in being hailed as the visionary who put India on the IT map. While his success has made millionaires out of lakhiers , I wonder if it has made an iota of difference to the masses of the really indigent in India. Try and emulate the House of TATA'S NM for maybe you will learn a lesson or two in humility.
