NANDAN NILEKANI - MEMBER OF INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS IS THE RICHEST CANDIDATE IN LOK SABHA ELECTION 2014
Nilekani joined Indian National Congress in March, 2014 and will contest 2014 Lok Sabha election from Bangalore South constituency.
He is the co-founder of one of the nation's best-known IT companies, Infosys. Nilekani left Infosys in July 2009 to serve as the chairperson of the Unique Identification Authority of India, a cabinet-ranking position that he entered under the invitation of Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh. As chair of the UIDAI he is responsible for implementing the envisioned Multipurpose National Identity Card, or Unique Identity card (UID Card) project in India.
Nilekani's is one of the most keenly watched contests in India's election, which began this month and runs through mid-May. About 30 per cent of India's 814 million voters are urban, an important force at a time when many voters are angry about corruption and the economy.
Nilekani has started campaigning every day at dawn, visiting parks in this southern Indian city, glad-handing sweaty joggers, interrupting Om-chanting yoga practitioners and disrupting soccer and badminton games.
"I am here to work for you," Nilekani says to them. Young men and women stop to stare; some click the mogul's picture. But the adulation quickly gives way to complaints.
