Jamshedpur: Tata Steel is all set to celebrate the 184th birth anniversary of its Founder, Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata on March 3, 2023. This year’s theme of Founder’s Day is Greennovation-Make Tomorrow Green.
Every year, Tata Steel along with other Tata group companies celebrate the birth anniversary of the Founder and his vision of an industrial future with community welfare at its core. J N Tata had begun his entrepreneurial journey with a textile mill in central India in the 1870s. His vision inspired the steel and power industry in India, set the foundation for technical education, and helped the country leapfrog to join the ranks of industrialised nations.
One of the key features of this year’s celebration will be the illumination of more than 40 landmark spots in Jamshedpur including heritage buildings, places of worship, dozens of roundabouts, etc. The use of colorful lights as a key part of the celebrations will be a welcome reminder to citizens and visitors on the beauty of the city.
