Ratan Tata calls on RSS chief in Nagpur

28 December, Nagpur

Ratan Tata, acting chairman of Tata Sons, arrived here Wednesday and met Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat.

Tata held a closed-door meeting with Mr Bhagwat for around half-an-hour at RSS headquarter. He was accompanied by BJP spokesperson Shaina NC.

According to sources, Tata reportedly discussed the ongoing tussle with the Tata Sons ousted chief Cyrus Mistry, who was unceremoniously sacked from the post recently.
He also talked about demonetization with the RSS Chief, sources said.

Tata had retired as chairman of Tata Sons in December 2012. He had seen off big names like Russi Mody of Tata Steel, Darbari Seth of Tata Chemicals, Ajit Kerkar of Indian Hotels and A H Tobaccowala of Voltas in the 1990s.

In contrast, Mistry, who succeeded Mr Tata and let many believe that he would remain in the position for long, was removed even before he could settle his foot in the company affairs properly.
