Narayana Murthy's statement
Discussions and debates about work-life balance are nothing new in India. People have been debating this for years. Long work hours, calls and emails even on weekends, etc., have made an employee's life 80 percent professional, leaving the remaining social life to be consumed by the weekly weekends. However, renowned Indian industrialist N.R. Narayana Murthy has once again addressed this issue, saying that it's better to work 72 hours a week than just five or nine hours a day. His statement has once again sparked a stir, and social media is abuzz with discussions.
Narayana Murthy reiterates his 72-hour rant.
In fact, N.R. Narayana Murthy recently said in an interview, "There's a saying in China, 9,9,6. Do you know what that means? 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week. That's a 72-hour workweek." He also said that young Indians should adopt this routine. This statement has drawn immediate reactions from social media users and is now attracting attention.
He has made such a statement before, even SN Subrahmanyan had washed his hands in the flowing Ganga.
It's worth noting that Narayana Murthy has previously advised Indians to work 72 hours a week. Larsen & Toubro Chairman SN Subrahmanyan also advocated for a 90-hour workweek, saying, "I'm sorry I can't get you to work on Sundays. How long can you spend taking a day off and staring at your wife? It's better to just work."
Now the users have told the truth.
As soon as Narayan Murthy's 72-hour protest went viral on social media, internet users launched a wave of reactions, which continues unabated. One user wrote, "Uncle, do what you want to do. We have our family and everything." Another user wrote, "Nothing is more important than family." Yet another user wrote, "You can support your family even by working 45 hours a day. Everyone can't be equal, so keep your thoughts to yourself; don't impose them."
