"We have a definite roadmap to implement the bankruptcy law, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs is working on it, the Law Ministry, the Legislative Department have played a very significant role in finalising the legislation and they will continue to have a very significant role in also finalising the regulations," he said, at an event organised by Assocham in New Delhi.
