An aviator, an entrepreneur, an industrialist, a visionary, a reformer, a leader and a patriot – Shri J R D Tata was born at Paris on 29th July 1904. The year 2012 is marked as the 108th Birth Anniversary of this legend who lived his live to transform the nation.
J R D Tata was the first Indian to have flown from Karachi to Bombay, when he founded the Tata Airlines in 1932, the forerunner of Air India which is today the national airliner.
he man who obtained the first pilot licence issued in India took this country to the next level. Ever since, he landed at India, he kept on adding new dimensions to this nation. Creating employments for lakhs of people in the world and working with a motive which aimed only at nation development, talks about the magnanimity and the generosity of the spirit named ‘Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata.’
The nation honoured J R D Tata with numerous commendations including the nation's highest civilian award - Bharat Ratna.
The Indian Air Force conferred the rank of Air Commodore on J R D Tata and later promoted him to the rank of Air Vice-Marshal.
This gentleman has made a conglomerate grow, which takes a credit of providing the services and products to the world ranging from salt to software. Under his chairmanship, ‘M’ was replaced by ‘B’ (The Tata Group grew from 100 Million dollar company to 5 Billion dollar company). He started with 14 enterprises under his leadership and half a century later on July 26, 1988, when he left, Tata & Sons was a conglomerate of 95 enterprises which they either started or in which they had controlling interest.
Today on the auspicious occasion of 108th Birth Anniversary of this pioneer, I feel proud to be a part of his legacy and I pledge to sustain this legacy.
