A political leader once told me that one has to always fight for
justice. The advice triggered my fight against the government’s wireless in local loop (WLL) policy in 2000. Despite the trauma of fighting the system, I never regretted the decision. The experience taught me that the tainted Indian “system” still had people who believed in values like honesty and integrity. At one point, I came across a quote by singer Bono: “We have to follow through on our ideals or we betray something at the heart of who we are. The culture of idealism is under siege.” This further boosted my spirits and I have never looked back since.
