Governance Deficit - Enough is Enough - Premji

WIPRO Chief Azim Premji is thoroughly disappointed, notwithstanding the Padma Vibhushan the Government gave him. "I am extremely disappointed. I think it is a national calamity and is personally very devastating because one had so much confidence when they (UPA-II) came in", he said in Davos yesterday.

"But I think, it has reached a point of catharsis. And when something reaches a point of catharsis, there seems to be no alternative but to change; "One has reached a point in public governance where one has to take stock... Enough is enough, we have to reform ourselves. If we don't do that, we are not going to leave children behind us proud of the country, despite 8-9 per cent (economic) growth”, he added
