information from the respondents due to their lack of knowledge in this specific research area.
Still the project is expected to be successful due to its synchronized execution. The budget of the
research would have to be high in terms of data collections and resources. The entire project
timeline should be vaster in order to gather sufficient information from various responses. If the
researcher can maintain an appropriate ethical consideration, while collecting necessary data and
information from the respondents the entire project has enough scope to be successful. Ethical
