Govt has to learn from corporates: PC
The silly regulations and unpredictable tariffs in trade and industry have been done away in the country during the last 20 years, said Union home minister P. Chidambaram on Monday.
Mr Chidambaram was delivering a speech after releasing a book, The TCS Story…and Beyond, written by S. Ramadorai, advisor to the Prime Minister in the National Skill Development Council and vice-chairman of Tata Consultancy Services.
“The book is an account of what kind of a system we had (for trade and industry) and how we broke that system,” Mr Chidambaram said, while asserting that the country will have to pay a huge price tomorrow if investment doesn’t take place today. He added that the government has lessons to learn from corporate companies in terms of the number of staffs they induct, train and deploy each year when the government departments still run with vacancies.
Mr Chidambram was all praise to Mr Ramdorai for his journey from a middle class Tamil Brahmin family to the post of CEO of a world-class company.
Mr Ramadorai said the book was autobiographical in many ways as his personal story was inextricably linked with the story of TCS. “I did not go to mountains for inspiration before writing this book. I have written it out of the hustles and bustles of my life,” he said.
