Swiss were not only known for their world class watches and chocolates; but also supplied world class machines to the Indian textile industry. JKs were one of the initial industrialists to import their machines for the textile company. His Excellency shared with gathering that in Switzerland it was a participatory government, where most decisions are made by referendum.
