RE: Making it easy to find us

Dear Amitabh ,

Following mail from Ankit came to me as a deep disappointment

Especially since , when we met in Mumbai on 5th Sept , you were so enthusiastic about B2B's role which complemented MakeinIndia initiative

Although there is no denying that B2B is a non-govt web site ,

it is NOT ( - and never was ) , a question of " guiding the web site visitors to a 3rd party web site "

If anything , B2B serves as that " missing link " between the Foreign Visitors ( of MakeinIndia web site ) and those 2.29 lakh potential Indian Partners

That is apart from the fact that " Who is investing in India ? " page serves as a LIVING PROOF of the fabulous success of Make in India initiative

May be my past emails to MakeinIndia team , could not present this COMPLEMENTARY ROLE of B2B adequately

I urge you to give me an opportunity to present my case to the Committee , in person , at a date / time convenient to you all

Despite my advanced age and frail health , this is a risk that I must take

I await your early response

Even this morning , I tried to reach you but you were busy in a meeting

with regards ,

PS :

I look upon this as a TEST CASE of a collaborative partnership between the Government and private individual Citizens like me , willing to lend their efforts for the success of Make in India

I hope , together , we succeed in jettisoning the burden of the past thru some OUT OF BOX thinking

Dear Hemen,

We had a meeting with DIPP on this Saturday to review the progress of the new Make in India website. A duly constituted committee reviewed the progress and readiness of the website. 

Inclusion of hyperlink to B2Bmessageblaster.com on the new website was also discussed. You may please be informed that the committee has not approved the inclusion of the hyperlink. The committee is of the view that makeinindia.com should not be guiding the website visitors to a 3rd party website which is a non-govt website. 

Thank you very much for your support. 

Best regards,

Ankit.

Dear Amitabh ,

Tried to reach you sometime back

Was told that you are in Moscow and will be in office tomorrow

Wanted to tell you that the NEW landing page of...... www.B2BmessageBlaster.com.......is the Investment News Stories page  !

Every foreign executive will get to see this page first

Also that the total no of stories have reached 1732

In the meantime , I got to see the " Re-Launched " web site of Make in India , but could not find those 2 hyperlinks to B2B web site !

May be this is still " Work-in-Progress "

I am unable to contact Ankit for clarification
