The Manmohan Singh-Prakash Karat stalemate over the nuclear deal brought out the divergent views inherent in the Indian democracy. Similarly, the 4Ps B&M newsmakers this fortnight are all advocates of widely different economic agendas. Nevertheless, each of them have left an indelible impression on the Indian business world. First on our list is the Indian textile industry stalwart, Rajendra J. Hinduja, Managing Director, Gokaldas Exports.
