The topmost industrial powerhouse is in deep internal turmoil. Reliance Industries is going through a bad phase at this moment in time, as both the brothers, Mukesh and Anil, battle over the control and ownership issues. The brothers, who were once a symbol of booming family unity in a large business conglomerate, have taken a sudden turn. Its been less than a year after the death of their father, the great visionary industrialist Dhirubhai Ambani, that this contentious issue has suddenly surfaced to the very chagrin of the company shareholders. What has ensued is sudden panic and skepticism amongst the people, both inside and outside the company; the future of the company hanging in uncertainity. Its sad to see such a power hunger and turmoil inside the company’s top management, a company that has more or less stood for public service and spirit. The vestiges of greed and the hunger for control, the ancient sins, have finally found a new home. I hope this issue settles soon and some sense gets drilled into the troubled and blackened minds of the two brothers, who are sweating it out uselessly.
