Is Ratan Tata really as great as he is portrayed?

 

2008: During the terror attack on the Taj Hotel, Ratan Tata stood outside the hotel with other senior staff members. The terrorists killed 33 people, including 21 guests and 11 hotel employees, and set the hotel on fire. After the security and rescue operations, Tata pledged to reopen the hotel for the public. He paid higher salaries to the victims' families and covered the medical bills for the injured. Under his leadership, the Tata Group started The Taj Public Service Welfare Trust. He also met the families of the victims and provided them with both financial and emotional support.

2020: During the COVID-19 pandemic, Taj Hotels provided 20,000 free meals daily to healthcare workers and migrant workers. Tata personally asked the hotel management to prioritize humanity and ethics.

2023: Tata personally funded a small animal hospital in Mumbai for stray animals, believing that animals, like humans, deserve love, respect, and care.

Nationalist: Despite his wealth, Ratan Tata always preferred India over other countries. Though he traveled widely, he felt most at home with his Indian friends. He went out of his way to treat his fellow citizens with dignity and love.

Fact: Ratan Tata was elegant, both inside and out, with great kindness and wealth.

After completing my +2 in science, I didn’t join college because I knew it would be too expensive. Instead, I decided to prepare for defense and government exams. Many people from my locality have secured government jobs after finishing +2. I prepared for 1.5 years but failed in all my attempts. I then decided to join a coaching center, hoping it would improve my chances. The fee was ₹7500—not much for some, but for me, it meant taking up part-time jobs to pay. I managed to pay ₹5000. Then, the second wave of COVID-19 hit. The pandemic brought poverty to my home. My father, being a daily laborer, had no work during lockdowns. To make things worse, my family contracted the v...
