    I am acutely aware of the severe financial crisis, that has engulfed the entire hotel industry in Mumbai. Bars owners are in a quandary, as they have to cough up bribe, to the tune of 4•7 crores to dismissed Inspector Sachin Waze.. This hard cash was collected on behalf of the Maharashtra Aghadi, Home Minister Anil Deshmukh !!! Hundreds of Hotels and resorts have shut shop. Many hoteliers are involved in the construction sector, this too has collapsed due to cascading aftereffect of this raging pandemic !!! Rest in eternal peace !!!!

Yes we should agree due to continues lockdown with out the busniess he had an burden of rs 8 lacks rent and the salary of the stranded staffs. Due to high pressure from the builder he went on depression and took his decisions to end the life. Feel pity on his family. Anyway RIP.

    Your Congress is a looting parner to wasooli gang which is ruling maharastra now. Mumbai police have a vasooli target of 100 crore pm just from Mumbai bars and hotels. Just calculate the looting target of all departments whole of maharastra. Businessman has no other option.

    The business community has suffered the worst,sadly not one measure to help anyone. Last time as well and even the 2nd lockdown most of us had to pay full rents. No business, pay rent,pay salaries of employees, and ZERO support from Govt. How do we sustain? Eventually suicide becomes the only option to helpless people.
