tender ever for remodeling all their Hotels in India and abroad. Some of the Pakistani
companies also applied for that tender. To make their bid stronger, two big industrialists
from Pakistan visited Bombay House (Head office of Tata) in Mumbai without an
appointment to meet up with Ratan Tata since he was not giving them any prior
appointment. They were made to wait at the reception of Bombay house.
• After a few hours, a message was conveyed to them that Ratan Tata is busy and can not
meet anyone without a prior appointment. Frustrated, these two Pakistani industrialists
went to Delhi and through their High Commission met up a Congress Minister. Then this
minister, Anand Sharma immediately called up Ratan Tata requesting him to meet up
with the two Pakistani Industrialists and consider their tender
“ENTHUSIASTICALLY.” Ratan Tata replied…“YOU COULD BE SHAMELESS, I AM NOT” & put
