Rahul Gandhi Accuses PM Modi, Shah of Treating Indian Businesses as 'Playthings' Amid Tata Sons Row
Gandhi said the dispute shows Indian business is being treated as a political plaything and urged major corporate leaders to speak out.
- On Wednesday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused the BJP-led government of treating Indian business as a "plaything," alleging that Tata is being "criminally destroyed" and vowing to "ensure justice for these crimes."
- These remarks follow a bitter leadership dispute at Tata Sons, where Tata Trusts Chairman Noel Tata challenged the reappointment of Executive Chairman Chandrasekaran, alleging procedural irregularities at the September 17 board meeting.
- In an October 26 letter, Noel Tata contended the reappointment violated Articles 118 and 104B, claiming no selection committee was constituted and required affirmative votes were not obtained.
- Noel Tata has demanded internal documents and meeting recordings within seven days to resolve the dispute; there has been no immediate reaction from the government or Tata Group regarding Gandhi's allegations.
- Tata Trusts holds a 66% stake in Tata Sons, and the conflict has split trustees and reached the boardroom, highlighting governance challenges within the country's largest conglomerate.
