Tweeting in the Haryanvi language, Grover said: “Tau, You just cannot accomplish the task. The way you act is like a Chaudhary (strong man). Your kids have even fled the scene so you get back now.”In a strategic move to strengthen its merchant lending operations, BharatPe recently acquired a controlling stake in Mumbai's Trillion Loans, a non-banking financial company (NBFC).
