The theme for Convergence 2013 is “India Seeks Revival”
India remains a mystery: A country that can offer so much and yet deliver little. Arguments to convince that India is still on track are met with outright scepticism. There is not one but a myriad of problems that plague our country, including a lack of visible leadership. Does contemporary India call for a new order? Convergence 2013 aims to develop and deliberate upon the roadmap for revival of the Indian story.
