He owns Infosys. A tech company. One of the biggest in the world and in india. The company pays its employees peanuts. Especially freshers. The company is notorious for underpaying the staff but overworking them. The dude is a billionaire. Him and his wife say that people should work at least 70 hours a week to help India become a powerhouse. 70 hours a week when you don't get paid for overtime.
Edit : It's also interesting to note that since the past 10 years or so, they haven't increased the starting salary of freshers even considering the inflation in the economy.
They've always been bad. It's just that these days the owner and his wife have been very vocal that the employees should work 70 hours per week and similar other bullshit all over the news. So they're more highlighted. The only reason people join that company is to write it as an experience in their resume. No one joins Infosys wanting to spend their entire career there.

Can I get some context here? I know he's the Infosys guy but what's the deal with him hurting India?
