    Expressing grief over the killing of a pregnant elephant, Ratan Tata on June 3 condemned the cruelty meted out to the animal.

    "I am grieved and shocked to know that a group of people caused the death of an innocent, passive, pregnant elephant with a pineapple filled with firecrackers. Such criminal acts against innocent animals are no different than acts of meditated murder against other humans. Justice needs to prevail," he tweeted.
