Ready to run for president, says Narayana Murthy
Could Infosys founder Narayana Murthy be the next president of the country? In an exclusive interview with Nikhil Wagle, the editor of our sister channel – IBN Lokmat, Murthy said it would be a great honour, but might be premature to comment further.


Murthy said it would be a big honour to add value to the country. “I will be very happy, absolutely not doubt about it, but that I think is realm of speculation that is not for me to comment on and that is perhaps too early right now. We still have another nine months to go,” he said.


He further said, "I am ready to add value to our people in any capacity. As I said, Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI) is a very important public institution that reins public health workers, public health professionals, National Payments Corporation of India aims to be like the master card or visa. Therefore, I think I will be very happy whatever value I can add."
