ASSOCHAM President Rana Kapoor said that the biggest takeaway is that a single party got past the crucial half-way mark in Parliament. “It is the first time after 1984 that a party has got a simple majority on its own giving the ruling alliance huge elbow room to take bold economic decisions, which at times may not appear to be popular,” he said.
Ashok Soota, Executive Chairman of Happiest Minds, observed that while people are debating whether we have a wave or not, “it turned out to be a tsunami!”
MAIT, in a statement, congratulated Narendra Modi for steering the BJP to victory. “Narendra Modi has always advocated increased use of technology in governance and digital literacy.
With the BJP in power, they can aggressively promote technology adoption among different stakeholders, foster technology enabled e-governance initiating citizen-government interface, which has direct synergies and linkages to manufacturing, spurring market growth, employment and standard of living,” it said.
