When asked about his future plans, he aims to expand his company’s presence in northern states as well with current ongoing projects in Gujarat and Rajasthan. He believes that the only way to tackle India’s unemployment crisis is to strengthen the MSME sector and make India a strong industrial economy on par with China. India, being a service economy, can’t afford to generate enough employment opportunities with recent developments in AI and the ever widening skill gap and inflation. He also praises Government of India’s initiatives like start up India and startup accelerator programs to foster entrepreneurship in engineering colleges.
