The 114th birth anniversary of Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhai Tata will be celebrated on Sunday. Always more than an industrialist, JRD Tata made a unique contribution to the development of the sciences and art.
He played a pivotal role in the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, the Tata Memorial Cancer Research Centre and Hospital, the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, the National Centre for Performing Arts and the National Institute of Advanced Studies. Besides his social concerns that distinguished him, he was also the undisputed pioneer of civil aviation in India, and helped to usher in an era of air transport in India.
Various activities have been lined up at Tata Steel to commemorate his 114th Birth Anniversary.
As a mark of tribute to JRD Tata and his passion for flying, a special program will be held Sonari Airport by Tata Steel’s Aviation department. This will display an Aero-modeling show and static display of aircraft. TSAF is conducting a fun filled adventure game for the citizens of Jamshedpur. Mega Health Camp for Truck Drivers and Helpers at Transport Park Burmamines in association with Tata Motor CSR, Awadh Dental College, FPAI and supported by Western Carrier Transporter will be organised.
