Narayana Murthy prefer foreigner to national anthem

Nayana Murthy, whom President APJ Abdul Kalam named as a possible successor is perfer foreigner to national anthem simply because he didn't want to embarrass them (foreigners).

It all started with an Infosys programme at its Mysore campus in which the President Kalam was the chief guest. On the occasion, the Infosys authorities played an instrumental version of the National Anthem instead of it being sung.

When asked to explain the reason behind the decision, Murthy gave his own reasons, unaware that his comment could lead to a huge debate in the public domain. "We have a lot of foreigners. We didn't want them to be embarrassed, when they are silent and others are singing. So this was fine," he said.

Every Indian must ask why he is so caring towards foreigners?
