"We must be gender sensitive. We would want to see companies having at least one woman director on their boards, a beginning must be made."

(On Narayana Murthy's Comment On IITs Falling Standard) "It is ironic when someone who runs a body shopping company and calls it hi-tech, makes sweeping comments on the quality of IIT students.Mr Murthy had a point, but wish he wasn't so sweepingly high handed. Fix the system. No point judging students. IITians have made a great contribution in making Infosys what it is. Hope people remember that."

(Should PM face a probe in the 2G scam) "The Prime Minister should face it. His name has come up. He should face the agnipariksha. If he comes out clean, it will only do good. Why should one fear that? Is Manmohan Singh not clean? But what is the use? He is remote controlled"
