This IIHS sounds very much like the formation of an Indian Bilderberg group or a Indian Tavistock Institute. Nandan Nilekani is member of World Economic Forum, a child organization of the Bilderberg Group....all this sounds very ominous and very evil. All the board members of IIHS are rich industrialists from the private sector.
2. Why new UK govt scrapped ID cards with a week of its coaltion govt ???
Do u ppl have any idea about this?? how serious the problem is ?? why indians think themselves as smart where in reality they are out of touch with reality.
"migrant workers -- many of them women who build roads and houses for privileged Indians -"
What do you mean. How are common indians privileged?
And who kept the indians Poor - it is Politicians. Not so-called other Indians.
Shame on such people who think they can write clever articles but are really clueless.
We need no experts, Indians can easily solve the problem, except for the fact that UGLY POLITICIANS and pseudo intellectuals do not want the problems to be solved, else they would be jobless.

Sandeep - The founders of Infy together do not have 25% of the total stock unlike Wipro where the chairman had 82% of the total shares.
Nilekani's total stake was close to 6% which has been distributed to his family members as well.
If encashed, the total shares' net worth is 1.8 billion US dollars.
NR Narayana Murthy's daughter's stake is Infy is 2%, which if encashed is 1600 crore rupees.
There is no corruption as such in this case.
Now you understand why the Ambanis always want to go public with an IPO. That is how they are rich.

I am sorry that I find this reaction too cynical. Some one who earned by hard work some luck. How many of you who are making rash comments in this forum are capable of leaving your job and starting a company and slogging for 12 years before getting the first signs of reward?? One of India's great problems is CYNICISM OF THE EDUCATED CLASS. It really stuns me as to how a 50 crore donation can bring out so much cynicism instead of admiration and thankfulness!! Unfortunately many of you who make these snide comments will benefit from his donation - that is the great IRONY!

what are you people trying to say, Nandan Nilekani is trying for a good cause. What he has donated is money left after paying tax. When some one is trying to do good encourage it....if you cant do it...
