Minorities afraid, says Infosys founder Narayan Murthy

IT veteran says atmosphere of trust integral for economic progress

New Delhi: In a direct attack, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi claimed that there was a “diabolical design” behind the spread of intolerance. She said that the Congress “will fight divisive forces”.

Meanwhile, Infosys founder Narayan Murthy, while saying that he was “not a politician” and “not interested in politics”, he felt that the “reality today is that there is considerable fear in the minds of the minorities”.

He said that the first priority “of this government, or for that matter any government, both at the Central level and the state level, is to bring back the confidence, the energy, the enthusiasm, the trust in the minds of every Indian that this is our country, I have all the rights here, I am very safe here and therefore I will work towards the betterment of India.”

For him a country can only progress, even economically, only when “there is no distrust, no fear.”
