This statement is True.

Explanation:

The statement “Businessmen are Trustees of Society” is based on Mahatma Gandhi's Trusteeship philosophy. Based on this principle:

  • They are expected to use these resources properly, not only for personal gain but also for the benefit of society.
  • This promotes ethical business activity, social responsibility, and inclusive development.
