Zoho’s Vembu calls for national spirit; seeks cultural revival, says rural India shows way

Zoho founder Sridhar Vembu urges India’s educated elite to embrace patriotism and local identities, arguing it’s crucial for national development. He contrasts this with the fading sense of belonging among urban Indians, attributing Zoho’s success to its employees’ national spirit. Vembu cites Japan, Korea, and China as examples of nations powered by national pride and self-reliance.
