Murthy urges techies to stay in India

BANGALORE, INDIA: Youngsters in IT industry should opt for career growth within India, instead of going to foreign countries like the US and settling there, said Infosys mentor N R Narayana Murthy on Tuesday.

India offers larger growth opportunities than anywhere else in the world, Murthy was quoted as saying by PTI.

"Somehow our youngsters have all assumed the idea of joining this industry is to go to the US, get there, get an H1B, convert it into green card and settle down there. I think it is a wrong solution, a wrong strategy," he said while addressing a summit here.
