Infosys submits Mission Bhubaneswar plan

Even as Orissa grapples with the problem of finding a perfect roadmap for rapid industrialisation, software major Infosys has offered it a blueprint, which, when transformed into reality, may catapult the state to the position of intellectual, cultural and business heart of eastern India.

The blueprint, code-named Mission Bhubaneswar, was presented to Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik through an hour-long powerpoint presentation by Infosys chief financial officer T V Mohandas Pai.

"Bhubaneswar should become the educational centre of the country. Invite India's 20 best private schools to open (centres) here to offer quality education," Pai said as the Chief Minister, his principal secretary Bijoy Patnaik and a host of bureaucrats listened with rapt attention.
