The present government and the all the states are helping them with all the inspiration they need. But, this is also true that all five fingers are not equal. There are people around us who use dishonest ways for business. In the past four years, the government has been successful in sending out the message that anything that takes place, should be within the boundaries of the law. GST, insolvency, and bankruptcy code are different mediums through which honest businessmen are being inspired and if someone who benefits the most from it, is my Bohra Community. This is a big reason that within 4 years, the faith of investors globally has grown."
