In this exclusive interview, Akshay Jaitly, co-founder of leading law firm Trilegal and TrustBridge, makes a compelling case for how India can unlock its next chapter of growth: by restoring trust, rethinking compliance, and renewing our commitment to the Rule of Law.

Too often, Jaitly notes, regulation in India stems from suspicion; a belief that wrongdoing is the norm. The result? A compliance-heavy system that overwhelms capacity and stifles initiative.

What we need instead:

🔹 Fewer, clearer laws

🔹Credible and consistent enforcement

🔹A government that steps back where it must, and steps up where it matters

A robust Rule of Law doesn’t mean more rules. It means better rules, equally applied.
