Businessman and philanthropist Bill Gates in an exclusive interview to NDTV said India has a huge potential to expand technological capacities to save lives and improve standards of living.
Recalling his several meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Mr Gates said his foundation works closely with the Indian government and Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani, whose work on developing and implementing the biometric identity number Aadhaar is well-known, to see whether some of the ideas that India has successfully deployed at scale can be made available to other countries.
