Indian businessman and the former chairman of Bajaj groups Rahul Bajaj passed away at 83. The son of the businessman Kamalnayan Bajaj died of heart disease on 12th February at Ruby Hall Clinic in Pune. He was awarded the third highest civilian award Padma Bhushan in 2001.
Arun Firodia, chairman of Kinetic Group described Bajaj as the titan who lived at his factory site in Akurdi, rather than in the heart of Pune.
“He was a doyen of the automobile industry, his unique trait was that although he spoke what was right, he had friend all over. This was because what was in his heart,” Firodia said.
On the other hand the chairman of Mahindra Group Anand Mahindra tweeted, “I stand on the shoulders of giants. Your footprints on the sands of Indian Business will never be extinguished. Om Shanti.”
