Businessman Fattechand Ranka informed that the first meeting of hoteliers after the Corona period was held with enthusiasm. “In this, big challenges will be faced by the hoteliers in the future, but the hoteliers here should not be afraid and stand firm. At the same time, hoteliers should maintain their unity. As the President of Pune Traders Federation, I will stand firmly with them,” Ranka added further.

Expressing his opinion, Mahendra Pitalia stated that the hoteliers should identify the challenges that will come in the future and plan solutions for them. At the same time, it is equally important to survive in this business.
