Even as state elections beckon, Nilekani believes that India’s political landscape will change with education. Caste affiliations will get weaker as people vote with the economy in mind.

An alumni of the IIT-Bombay, Nilekani started with Patni Computers where he met NR Narayana Murthy. In 1981, Murthy, Nilekani and eight others formed Infosys Technologies.

Nandan Nilekani has been a brand ambassador for Infosys and has once even been named by Time magazine as one of the ‘100 most influential people in the world.’
