Condolence Message:I was deeply saddened when I heard about Mr Dewang Mehta's demise. He was perhaps the only person from the IT sector who could communicate everything so very clearly in both Hindi and English and the people who were not very clear about certain things in the IT sector were also able to understand it so much better because of the simple language in which Mr Mehta used to communicate. It is a great loss to the nation ,the IT sector and Nasscom. However Nasscom employees will have to build on the great legacy that he has left behind as that could be the only tribute that they could giveto this great man. May his soul rest in peace and may his vision help our nation build on the IT strengths to emerge as an IT super power -the way Dewang Mehta had visualised.
