Mr. Ratan Tata, one of the biggest business tycoons in the country has crticised the biggest tycoon in the country, Mr. Mukesh Ambani for staying in a palatial 27 storey apartment, ‘Antilla’, at Mumbai. In an interview with ‘The Times’, the world famous daily, he is reported to have stated “It makes me wonder why some one would do that”. He also stated” The person who lives in there should be concerned about what he sees around him and ( asking) can he make a difference. If he is not, then it is sad because this country needs people to allocate some of their enormous wealth to finding out ways of mitigating the hardship that people have”.
Very interesting! Whether it is Tata, Ambanis or other big tycoons in the country, they have never cared for the ordinary people or the poor. Their only one target was to get more and more profits. I don’t say these people had not contributed any thing for the country. But it is not even 0 . 001 % of their profit. And even that was to get names for them or to avoid taxes or get concessions. Now one of them has started criticising the others. Well and good.
Will all these tycoons and big business people, including Tata have a self critical analysis of what they have done to the poor and the ordinary people? (based on a report in Economic Times 22-05-2011)
