Well said Manish..Citizens of the western countries do not even remember their national anthem..forget about the western countries..how many of us know the national anthem correctly. What Mr.NM meant was..it is not mandatory to sing the national anthem song when the President is at sight. The President was invited to Infosys campus to talk about the development of Indian economy through globalization and other factors, but not to sing the national anthem at that moment. The reason why manish pointed out on germans was though they do not remember their own national anthem, but they act upon the country's economic development and how to make their country more stronger in the world. And if Archit is more concerned about the national sentiments, i guess there are many more sensitive issues, where they can raise their voice and act upon them. The Vedike which has raised the complaint against Mr.NM is purely a political stunt as Infosys is the major shareholder in inviting non-kannadigas to Bangalore to work for Infosys.I dont think Mr.NM has to take this seriously.Its a time wasting compliant. Regards

Dear Manish, Germans don't like anybody discussing about their history. They don't teach history. Definitely they don't feel any worthy things, inherited, to be praised about the nation. They don't have "diversified" things as we have. So there is no point in emulating Germans, let us have good points, atleast in singing national anthem. Feel proud to sing yaar....

In germany people don bother that they have born legitimately or illegitimately...it doessn't mean that Indians also follow that. Manish is welcome to follow the germans. All the best.

Boss, being in Germany why do u bother about Indians, We will take care about our national anthem.Being in Germany even u wud have become like them, what do u mean by saying making an issue out of slightest thing. If this is not a big issue, then ofcourse even kashmir issue is not big for u.Why shud we fight , anyway some land, give them.Why r our soldiers dying over there. U sit happily in front of the PC, with snacks anc coffee and speak all these.

DO NOT DO AS GERMANS DO! What are you preaching? Just because the Germans do not repect the national sentiments you preach us to follow them?
