The Truth Behind #SuitBootKiSarkar.

On the occasion of death anniversary of #DhirubhaiAmbani, let us read how Indira & Co helped a clerk of Aden to become Polyster Prince of India or in other words Evolution of SuitBootKiSarkar with the help of Congress & Pranab Mukherjee.
When Congress was split into two, most big business of those days had sided with Congress (O) and Indira wanted her own moneybags whom she could trust and this was possible in the licence-permit raj where entrepreneurship could be engineered. A number of businessmen grew up
thanks to her largesse among them Dhirubhai Ambani, Kapal Mehra of Orkay.
DBA was a shrewd businessman but the initial help he got made Dhirubhai realise the power of the government. It could make or break business & with the sarkar on your side you could always be on the make.
