Dhirubhai Ambani and Reliance
Dhirubhai Ambani and Reliance “Our dreams have to be bigger. Our ambition higher. Our commitment deeper. And our efforts greater. This is my dream for Reliance and for India.” - Dhirubhai Ambani. "The country has lost an iconic proof of what an ordinary Indian fired by the spirit of enterprise and driven by determination, can achieve in his own lifetime. Not only did Ambani build a large and diversified business conglomerate but also inspired many first generation entrepreneurs with his success."” - Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Prime Minister, Republic of India. "Dhirubhai built an empire that is rock solid and he will always remain an icon." - Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman, Aditya Vikram Birla Group. THE DEATH OF AN ICON The 6th of July 2002 was a black day in the Indian corporate history. The Founder and Chairman of the Reliance group of Industries (Reliance), Dhirajlal Hirachand Ambani (Dhirubhai) died after a 13 day battle for survival. A perfect combination of entrepreneurship and leadership, Dhirubhai transformed Reliance from a company with a turnover of Rs 640 million in 1976, to one with a turnover of Rs 620 billion in 2002. Starting with a small textile mill in Naroda, in 1966,Dhirubhai took Reliance into various areas like petrochemicals, polyester filament yarn, oil and gas exploration and production, refining and marketing of petroleum, textiles, power, telecom services, information management and financial services (Refer Exhibit I for Reliance Group of Companies). Dhirubhai never followed the textbook style of management. Instead, he evolved a unique style, which combined the American style of entrepreneurship, with the Japanese focus on the latest technology.

CONTEMPORARY ISSUES in MEDIA ETHICS Boctor of $I)Tios(Opi)
CONTEMPORARY ISSUES IN MEDIA ETHICS ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Boctor of $I)tIos(opI)p IN PHILOSOPHY By MD. EHSAN Under the Supervision of M. MUQIM DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY, ALIGARH (INDIA) 2009 ABSTRACT Twenty first century is the century of knowledge and information. Knowledge is the power. Media such as newspapers, radio, television, magazines, internet etc. are the primary and central source of information and knowledge of this fast moving world. Hence, media enjoys enormous power and exerts tremendous impacts on our lives. Media as a powerful institution not only disseminates information and knowledge rather it influences our lives, our political systems and our society as a whole. It shapes our opinions, beliefs, attitudes and behaviours. It affects our decision and judgment about family, home, education, institution etc. through information and knowledge it provides. So much so that it fashions our tastes and moral standards, and socializes our younger generation. Furthermore, media has got important role to play in democracy. It is media which helps democracy become 'of and 'by' the people. It wheels democracy. It facilitates democracy by making interaction between the governed and the governor. Moreover, it is considered to be the back bone as well as the fourth pillar of democracy. * I am using media as a singular noun In view of the enormous power implicit in media, its tremendous impacts on our lives and on our governing systems, and in view of its deep penetration in our society the need arises to use it with great caution and control.

RIL Rededicates Itself to the Nation at Its Largest Ever Gathering
RIL rededicates itself to the Nation at its Largest Ever Gathering Mumbai: 24th December, 2017: At a glittering function attended by more than 50,000 staff and families of Reliance Industries Limited and its group companies, Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh Ambani exhorted the young Reliance workforce to take the company to top 20 in the world and play even a bigger role in nation building in the coming years. Sh. Ambani was speaking at the Reliance Family Day (RFD) event being celebrated across the country by the employees and families of RIL and other group companies. More than 50,000 people, comprising employees and their families, attended the grand celebrations at the Reliance Corporate Park in Navi Mumbai while another 2,00,000 employees and their families joined the celebrations live via video conferencing in more than 1000 locations across the country including manufacturing sites, retail stores, Jio Points etc., thus making it possibly the largest corporate family get-together. Special arrangements were made across the various locations for the large Reliance family to enjoy this evening together. Articulating his dream for Reliance of the future, Sh. Ambani said that in its first four decades the company has already achieved global and national leadership positions in its various businesses and therefore well positioned to accomplish even greater goals in its golden decade. Amidst thunderous support from the audience, Sh. Ambani articulated his five point dream that he would like Reliance to achieve: to be among the top 20 companies in the world; become a leading provider of clean and affordable energy to India; become a leading global producer of innovative new materials; Jio to digitally transform the nation in entertainment, financial services, commerce, manufacturing, agriculture, education and healthcare; and Reliance and Jio to be even a stronger partner to our nation so that India can become a global super power.
