NEW DELHI: Citing an example of traffic rule violation in the national capital, Infosys founder N R Narayana Murthy on Tuesday said that he feels uncomfortable coming to Delhi because "it is the one city where indiscipline is the highest."While speaking at the All India Management Association (AIMA) foundation day, Murthy said that people should treat community property better than personal property as one of the values to avoid issues of dishonesty in public governance.
"I really feel very uncomfortable coming to Delhi, this is one city where indiscipline is the highest.
Let me give you an example.
I came yesterday from the airport.
At a traffic signal, there were so many cars, motorbikes and scooters, you know, violating the traffic light without a single care.
If we can't even wait a minute or two, do you think those people will wait if there is money? Of course they won't wait," Murthy said.
"We should start teaching our children to demonstrate these things in small areas, in areas where there is small returns, to get used to following the right path...
Then you will gradually improve towards resisting temptation, where there are big returns," he added.
The Infosys founder said that he learnt first lesson of corporate governance from his teacher.
