"Clearly industry is looking forward to hear what is his (Rahul Gandhi) agenda for growth. We would like to work with him to make sure that our goals are the same," Infosys co-founder and Executive Co-Chairman S Gopalakrishnan said here.
Gandhi is scheduled to address the annual general meeting of industry body CII tomorrow morning.
"We want economic growth, we want jobs, we want inclusive growth, we are looking forward how we can work together to make this happen" Gopalakrishnan, who is also President designate of CII, said on the sidelines of CII AGM that began here today.
The 42-year-old Congress leader is slated to speak at a 45-minute session on the second-day of the meet, which will also be attended by top business leaders and industrialists like Bharti Airtel head Sunil Bharti Mittal, Godrej Group Chairman Adi Godrej and Wipro Chairman Azim Premji.
