Former Infosys CEO and Chairman of Manipal Global Education TV Mohandas Pai on Wednesday said that Hyderabad may take over the tag of “Information Technology capital of India” and cautioned the Karnataka government about the same.
Pai blamed the ‘neglect’ of the successive Karnataka governments for this potential shift and hoped that the Congress government led by Siddaramaiah would show more energy in
improving the city. He took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his feelings.
Several users reacted to the businessman’s post saying that Hyderabad, is indeed in going to dethrone Bengaluru as the IT capital of the country. Many have commented on Pai’s post applauding Telangana IT Minister KT Rama Rao’s contribution in putting Hyderabad in the spotlight, even as the city grows from strength to strength as an IT powerhouse.
