Hyderabad: Corruption has become a major problem for AP to remain at the top of the Ease of Doing Business rankings.
In a letter to the AP government, the Vizag Chamber of Commerce and Industry expressed its concern over corruption in the state. It said, “one thing that we notice is the reluctance of businesses to come out in the open and state the actual problems be it corruption or otherwise".
The chamber has requested the government to hold a closed-door meeting with businesses across various sectors and let them explain the ground realities.
The chamber has offered to arrange a meeting at Vizag at the convenience of the AP government.
The Centre had recently ranked AP and TS as number one in Ease of Doing Business. AP was No. 2 last year, TS state moved up 13 places. “If AP wants to remain at the top, we will have to set our standards higher,” the chambers said.
