Admitting that "bank scams tarnish the image" of the country, Vice President Venkaiah K Naidu today said the "leaders of Brand India should possess "uncompromising honesty, integrity and ethical values".
The absence of fear for law among some people has led to the increase of scams over the years, Naidu said while addressing students at the convocation ceremony of IIM-Shillong here.
"It is important to adhere to values of honesty, integrity, truthfulness and adopt the best practices. Corporate ethics should not be violated," he said, asking students to display moral standards to make India proud.
The Vice President also quoted the AsianDevelopment Bank predictions about India's economic growth to say there will be opportunities galore for young people in the coming years.
He lauded the NDA government's new tax regime and said it "will propel India's future growth".
"The robust FDI flows attracted by liberalized regulations and the government's steps to improve the ease of doing business will further bolster growth."
