Running 14 Private Limited Companies from Small to Large
Very few people know that I have a keen interest in business. I manage a total of 14 private limited companies, ranging from small to large, using a combination of my skills. Apart from my business ventures, I find satisfaction in contributing to society, providing employment in hospitals through my companies, and assisting people in various needs, both big and small. Engaging in politics and being responsible for a party that addresses societal issues is also a part of my nature. If any work slips from my hands and doesn’t get completed, I don’t find peace until it is resolved. I live a content and enjoyable life, appreciating it to the fullest.
A Schedule from Morning till Night
Talking about my daily schedule and fitness, I wake up at 6:30 AM and spend an hour playing badminton and another hour working out. If there is any disturbance in the schedule due to election times, I compensate by working quickly and efficiently. From morning to night, I engage in various activities, managing family time between business, party-related work, and personal work. I value my family’s support, and even though 80% of my time is dedicated to politics, I allocate 10% for personal activities. Occasionally, when injustice is done to the family regarding time allocation, I compromise by giving them a little less time.
Living in Kamalapur with Parents
My parents live in Kamalapur, along with my elder brother and sister-in-law. They prefer staying in the village, and whenever time permits, or if there’s any function there, I make it a point to visit and spend time in the village or here in Rajkot. Building and maintaining relationships with people and ensuring that no one is unhappy due to me is my natural tendency. My circle of friends is quite extensive, ranging from Gandhinagar to Gujarat and different regions in Hindustan, where I have significant social and political connections.
