Ludhiana, March 12, 2014: When an Indian falls into a trouble, he has two fine excuses- the system will never change and what can I do alone", said Suhel Seth, the Founder & Managing Partner, M/s Counselage India, New Delhi, at a session organised by Ludhiana Management Association at Ludhiana on Tuesday on the topic –“The Politics of Business- The new Paradigm”.
