Ratan Tata’s love for dogs transcended his persona, strays welcomed in Tata offices: Raj Thackeray

MUMBAI: MNS president Raj Thackeray on Thursday fondly remembered that he and industrialist Ratan Tata shared a common thread of their love for canines and said stray dogs were welcomed in all Tata premises, be it the Taj Mahal hotel or group headquarters.

His love for dogs transcended his persona to a level beyond words, recalled the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief.

In a post on X, Thackeray said Tata was to be felicitated at the Buckingham Palace in the UK for his unmatched philanthropy. However, at the very last moment, his pet dog took ill. Tata immediately called up the then Prince Charles and conveyed his regrets as he couldn’t leave his ailing dog alone.
