Mumbai, Aug 18: The chief mentor of IT major Infosys Technologies, Narayana Murthy today reiterated that low-tech manufacturing sector can create better employment opportunities in India and called for development of low-tech industry in the country. Speaking at an interactive meet here, organised jointly by All India Association of Industries (AIAI) and Young Entrepreneur's Society (YES), Mr Murthy said ''In a country like India where more and more job opportunities are required, there is an urgent need for developing more and more low-tech manufacturing units.''
''IT industry is not the industry that can create enough jobs for all in the country. However, IT industry can create job opportunities for those who posses specialised education and skills.
On the other hand, majority in the country cannot afford to get such specialised education and skills facilities,'' Mr Murthy pointed out.
''For creating enough job opportunities in India, the low-tech industry needs to be developed,'' Mr Murthy asserted.
