Congress MP counters Narayana Murthy's 70-hour week: Working longer meaningless

India Today  

Congress MP Karti Chidambaram has criticised Infosys co-founder NR Narayana Murthy's proposal to work for 70 hours per week, stressing on the focus of efficiency instead of "meaninglessly" working for long hours. Last month, Murthy stood firm on his stance of working 70 hours a week that had earlier snowballed into a topic of debate. The Infosys co-founder further said India needed a stronger work ethic, even suggesting earlier that Indians should work 70 hours a week to help the nation progress. Murthy's position on the work ethic in India has often drawn parallels with countries like Germany and Japan, which he says rebuilt their economies after World War II through hard work and perseverance.
