Tata, the former Tata Group chairman, passed away late on Wednesday aged 86. The news of his demise sent shockwaves across the nation, with millions of people paying heartfelt tributes to the renowned industrialist. Following the sad news, prominent figures in the business and technology world paid their condolences to Tata, a true visionary who inspired generations of entrepreneurs.
However, Paytm CEO Vijay Shekhar Sharma's tribute sparked outrage on social media, prompting him to take down the post. The sudden backlash raises questions about the kind of posts that should be made on social media when it comes to mourning the loss of someone as iconic as Tata.
It's no secret that Tata was an iconic figure in the world of business and beyond. During his long and illustrious tenure as the chairman of the Tata Group, the 86-year-old industrialist played a pivotal role in transforming the conglomerate into the multinational giant it is today.
From pioneering India's first indigenously developed car to spearheading the Tata Trusts, the nation's largest and oldest philanthropic organization, Tata was a profound thinker and an exemplary leader. His enduring legacy can be seen in the way the Tata Group functions, mirroring the values he instilled during his time as chairman.
Following his sad demise, veterans and top businessmen in the technology industry including Paytm CEO Vijay Shekhar Sharma rushed to social media to pay their tributes to the late Tata. Though Sharma later deleted the post, several screenshots were shared by users who questioned the content of the tribute.
Despite Sharma's well-intentioned gesture to pay respect to Tata, it didn't go down well with the audience, sparking outrage on social media. As the controversy unfolded, the Paytm CEO chose to delete the offending post in a bid to quell the backlash.
