Dedicated

Responsibility

Mr. Raghu dwelt on the social responsibility of corporate houses and said the TVS group was always in the forefront in discharging its social responsibility.

While there were companies such as TVS and Johnson & Johnson, which accorded priority to social responsibility, there were others like Union Carbide, which abdicated their responsibility, he added.
