opinion due to the fast development , the effort through which they felt that they may lose the control
of entire organisation that they were enjoying so far.
Since it can create a family dispute, I had to step down by leaving my all effort half the way to keep the
relation and respect I had as a client to them in the past.
There after I felt and was upset thinking that the real professionals who possess proven track record or
who can deliver the best have no respect and no one needs or anyone thinking of utilisation of their
expertise /experience/exposure but to play politics made me to think of withdraw and I got engaged
with my own housing project for settling down at Lonavala, Maharashtra.
