Why Narayana Murthy - a true inspiration?

Full name of NR Narayanamurthy is Nagavara Ramarao Narayana Murthy. He is popular in the world as NRN. And this is not something which was gifted to him by someone instead he is a self-made man. He has done something because of which people take his name with respect.
He was born on August 20, 1946 in Karnataka. Here the story of his greatness starts. 

He did bachelors degree in electrical engineering from National Institute of Engineering and then masters from IIT Kanpur. And later lead a software company. So think of the shift in terms of handling software technologies and software professionals from esteemed organization. A visionary leader with his determination leaded his IT team so well that Infosys is now one of the largest software MNC company in India.
It takes a lot of hard work, determination, motivation, courage with a superb vision to cover such a distance.
He also saw odd days when his first company Softronics could not do well but he did not stop. In 1981 with other 6 founders he founded Infosys with a sum of INR 10000 borrowed from her wife Sudha Murthy. Can you imagine how a person can create a billion dollar company out of INR 10000.
He started from seven employees and now Infosys has more than two lacs employees. He was CEO of Infosys between 1981 to 2002. Then he became chairman of board between 2002 to 2006. He got retired in 2011 but was called back to lead again in 2013 and his comeback again shown positive results.
For his works he received many accolades all over the world. He also received prestigious Padma Bhushan. He still funds so many startups and ventures. He is still working and keeping his eye on Infosys.
All of these things are very inspiring. You can imagine the struggle it takes to change a home grown company into a superb respected organization.
Thanks Narayana Murthy for living such an exemplary life.

Why Jammu and Kashmir has two capitals? How does the two capital scenario works?

Image
Yes it is true. Jammu and Kashmir is having two capitals. The summer capital is Srinagar while the winter capital is Jammu . This is because as far as strategic location is concerned, Srinagar is the most suitable place to control all the political, territorial and functional working. As this is located in middle of the populated area of Jammu and Kashmir. Lot of activity people need to do in capitals so these are kept some where in middle of active area. But in winters, it becomes geographically challenging because it's temperature drops lower than zero. So we cannot run capital in these conditions. Also In the winters active financial area is southern part of Jammu kashmir. So they shift the capital to this part. Hence they have two capitals Srinagar for summers and Jammu for winters.
