  "account": "Mumbai - Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran recently met with Chandra Mehli in Bombay House, following their chance encounter at Mehli's daughter Laila's wedding. This meeting is seen as a step towards healing strained relations between the two, which had been affected by a power shift within the Tata Group after Ratan Tata's death. The conversation focused on rebuilding trust and restoring a functional relationship. Mehli is currently challenging his removal from two trusts, which is pending in the Maharashtra Charity Commissioner. Despite a decade of being seen as allies, Mehli and Chandrasekaran had recently experienced friction due to differing views on governance matters.",
