NRN - A President ??? Pls dont kid yourself
by Suhas Dwarakanath on Apr 09, 2007 12:33 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Did anyone read what happened when President Kalam was in Infosys campus recently?

NRN said: National anthem could make foreigners at Infy uneasy
I really do not understand why NRN should feel that foreigners will be "embarassed" when we sing our national anthem! Will other countries stop singing their anthems just because there are a foreigners? This is outrageous and I think NRN owes the nation and its citizens an apology. Any Indian will be proud of his/her national anthem, and here we have "pseudo" Indian, thinking that singing our anthem "embarasses" a handful of foreigners. This shows that we are still the slaves that we were during the British rule. Shame on you, NRN!

And to think that he should be projected as the next President !
What an irony!

Surely not ,if a person of his calibre and capacity who knows what to speak ,can utter such words with no respect to the national anthem has no right to be a leader of the country.
There are other ideal candidates as well viz. Mr.Ratan Tata , Mr. Brijlal Munjal ,Mr.Azim Premji , Mr. Kumarmangalam Birla , Mr. Adi Godrej etc etc.

But no Ambanis please...

Mukesh,

Everybody respects Mr. Murthy for his achievements and are of course proud of him. But all these do NOT stand when it comes to respecting National Anthem.

Singing OUR National Anthem doesn't mean disrespecting foreigners or putting them into uneasiness. For God's sake, it is OUR National Anthem.

This was NOT expected from Mr. Murthy.
