He said that the work done by the government of India during the ten years since 2014 has helped to improve India's performance from a dysfunctional government to
an efficient government.
Rajeev Chandrasekhar was speaking as the Indian representative at an international conference held in London on the topic of 'Future of Britain in a Changing World Order'.
