The 70-hour workweek comment made by Infosys founder NR narayana murthy has generated a lot of discussion online. A graph displaying the most current Time Use survey data was also well-received, having been uploaded in the hyderabad subreddit. In urban telangana, it shows that men between the ages of 15 and 59 work 65.4 hours per week. But that is insufficient. Approved by NR narayana murthy for 78.6 hours. It appears that we are getting close to realising his vision.

On the hyderabad subreddit post, someone commented, "Anyway, dude already makes his employees work 12-14 hours." "Another 9 hours, guys, come on, push the average up," wrote someone else. A query for someone who works more than 10 hours a week was posted on Reddit by an inquisitive and worried user. Are you people compensated fairly? "No sir, we don't get paid well for slaving straight 12 hours per day," said another user. hardly have time to socialise and consume healthy food.”

Despite what internet users may think, there is more job than ever before with hybrid work. With males in andhra pradesh working 60.9 hours, karnataka working 60.9 hours, tamil Nadu working 59.6 hours, and kerala working 58.4 hours, Telangana's 2019 record outpaces that of all other south indian states. Northeastern states like Mizoram and Tripura record work weeks of 50.3 and 56.2 hours, respectively, and telangana males work approximately 16 hours longer.

Here’s what narayana murthy said on work hours
The debate started when the founder of Infosys said that young indians must put in 70 hours a week of labour in order to compete with nations that have advanced significantly during the last 25–30 years on the first edition of 3one4 Capital's podcast, "The Record."

He declared, "Our youth must say, 'This is my country,'" alleging that india has among of the lowest rates of labour production in the world. My goal is to work seventy hours a week. After World war II, the Germans and the Japanese exactly accomplished this.

People responded by condemning narayana murthy on social media when his comments went viral. Someone commented, "What an elitist take!!" How he proposes such demanding work hours is beyond me. Is he aware of how much time individuals spend travelling? How difficult can life be? They ought to have family time, don't they?
