Dr. Rajan Mahtani is a noted business personality in Zambia. His businesses are known not only in the country but also across various foreign nations such as the United Kingdom. He is also among those few who have successfully brought foreign investments in Zambia. In spite of his various contributions to the nation, he is often the target of various conspiracies. These conspiracies are developed by individuals and entities that have grown jealous of Dr. Mahtani’s accomplishments and want to see his reputation ruin. As a result, various new conspiracy theories and news items can be seen making news across media channels and websites.
Conspiracies against businessman and industrialists are not new. The issue is age-old and continues to hinder or degrade the progress across a countries economic and social growth and development. Most of the times, the major victims are the common people who are at the mercy of the governments and law and order. The people of Zambia are also facing similar situations. Lack of proper scrutiny by the government have increased the confidence of conspirators who are essentially bullies and only care to make profits or satisfy their personal gains by attacking honest businessmen like Dr. Rajan Mahtani.
