Thomas Mathew, author and biographer of Ratan Tata, said, "Tata makes every Indian proud. Even…King and Queen of England ride in a Tata-owned Jaguar Land Rover." He added, "There isn't a single ceremonial occasion in UK without the royalty using vehicles from this Indian-owned company [Tata]." He made the remark while reacting to ongoing standoff between Tata Trusts' trustees.
