"India is destined to become most powerful nation on this earth."

"There is no doubt whatsoever in my mind and I hope that there should be no doubt in your mind either that India will become most powerful nation of this earth.

I believe that India is destined to achieve this status in a decade or two," asserted Dr. Verghese Kurien while addressing the students of Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar.

Introducing Dr. Verghese Kurien, Fr. E. Abraham, Director, XIMB described him as dynamic community leader, milkman of India, who did an excellent job to create white revolution in the country. Fr.

Dr. Kurien emphasised that the big country like India, we need several Kurien and therefore we started rural management programme at IRMA. "I believe that I could have started three more such institutes. Now at this age, it is not part of my duty anymore to create rural management- I believe, I could have started in Bihar and another in south, but not in Delhi because nothing grows in Delhi," said Dr Kurien.
