Ratan Tata tweets ‘Welcome back, Air India’ after Tata Sons wins bid for national carrier
Tata Sons Chairman Emeritus Ratan Tata on Friday tweeted a photograph of the company’s former chairman JRD Tata getting down from an Air India flight, minutes after Tata Sons secured the winning bid for the national carrier for Rs 18,000 crore.
In the photo, Tata wrote “The Tata Group winning the bid for Air India is great news! While admittedly it will take considerable effort to rebuild Air India, it will hopefully provide a very strong market opportunity to the Tata Group’s presence in the aviation industry.”
“On an emotional note, Air India, under the leadership of Mr. J.R.D. Tata had, at one time, gained the reputation of being one of the most prestigious airlines in the world.
