New Delhi: External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said US business leaders have appreciated  the incremental ease of doing business enabled by the Indian government.

Speaking at a press briefing in Washington on Wednesday, Jaishankar was quoted as saying by ANI that American businesses are surprised by how much more digital India has become, and how effectively the government is practising digital delivery.

These remarks come after Jaishankar met business leaders at the US-India Business Council (USIBC) and US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) in Washington during his US visit.

“I was struck by the fact both yesterday and today. Hearing from a very broad range of businesses. One overall appreciation for the incremental ease of doing business, sectoral, sometimes companies specific experiences, saying you know, like, today, there was an insurance company who spoke about …what a big change they saw, and how much more positive they were about,” the external affairs minister told reporters as quoted by ANI.

The minister said businesses were amazed at the change that has taken place in startups and innovation, as well as the change in labour laws and production-linked inventive policies in India.
