Celebrate India's success stories: Mohandas Pai

New Delhi: India needs to "celebrate" success stories of "heroes" like Dhirubhai Ambani and NR Narayana Murthy who have created wealth for the country and jobs for millions, former Infosys executive TV Mohandas Pai said on Tuesday.

"We have to create a good narrative for India. Our narrative is broken up into very negative matters about this country," he said.

There are success stories across sectors such as pharmaceuticals, IT and telecom, he said, pointing out that of the top 10 software companies globally, five are Indian.

"Why can't we celebrate that Mukesh Ambani wants to build a mature industry on empowering Indians to connect them to web at very low costs. There are so many success stories in India," Pai said addressing an AIMA event.

Building a case for compassionate capitalism, he said, "We need to celebrate success of Indian businessmen like NR Narayana Murthy and Dhirubhai Ambani.

"We need to learn what makes India work. We need more Indian case studies. Why can't an Ambani, Murthy get a Bharat Ratna? Why can't we honour businessmen? These people build the wealth for India, created jobs for India. I think it is important that we recognise the right kind of heroes."

Pai said the lack of jobs, skill development and education has led to the rise of "social tension" among various sections of society.

"All of these impact the way we run our country and business," he said.

Coupled with factors like the boom seen in startups, the next 15 years are going to be the greatest years in India's history, he added.
