That is what makes democracy stronger. I don&#8217;t think anyone can be against such a movement to end corruption,&#8217; he said when asked if he supported Hazare&#8217;s movement against corruption and maladministration.<\/p>\n<p>Welcoming the ongoing efforts to draft a Lokpal bill through the 10-member joint panel, Murthy said the government had been proactive in bringing a strong law against graft by involving him (Hazare) and other members of the civil society.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;As an ordinary citizen, I will always be there in my own way and do whatever little I can,&#8217; he said endorsing the people&#8217;s movement against graft.<\/p>\n<p>Murthy, however, parried questions on Baba Ramdev, saying he did not know the yoga guru well enough to comment on his movement against corruption and bringing back black money stashed abroad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Infosys&#8217; outgoing chairman N.R.
