In an interaction with the media on Monday in Lucknow, Tata stated that he was "losing his heart to this state". 
 
The businessman cum philanthropist was in the state capital to witness the signing of what has been a long-term understanding between the UP government and Tata Trusts for combined philanthropic efforts in the areas of nutrition, primary education and agriculture. 
 
Tata has promised to offer unconditional help to build Uttar Pradesh into a new city. "If there's anything we can do together to help you build this state, I will dedicate whatever time, effort or energies, personally, that it will take of me. I admire the fact you are doing great things. And I think you should consider that I am a friend of you, and your state," he was quoted saying. 
 
Thrashing the usual conceptions about the state, Tata stated that UP is often "misunderstood and underplayed", and that it will "take its place in the country and lead the way, in many ways". 
 The multi-dimensional MoU was signed by UP chief secretary Alok Ranjan, and the CEO of Tata Trusts, R Venkatraman. The signing saw some august company in the form of state CM <keyword id="6355031" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Akhilesh-Yadav">Akhilesh Yadav</keyword> and Ratan Tata himself.

CM Akhilesh Yadav stated that he was grateful for Tata's visit to the state, and promised to help Tata Trusts in every way possible. "We, in the government of UP, ask for nothing but your presence in UP. That, itself, should galvanise us, and bring about winds of change in UP," Akhilesh added. 
 
As per the MoU, Tata Trusts will be extending its support to the UP government in running poverty alleviation programmes, for employment generation, and in increasing income and infrastructure development for its citizens. 
 
All work would be monitored and overseen by a joint state-level steering committee that would comprise of representatives of both the state government and the Tata Trusts.

Mumbai, Jan 22 () Philanthropy arms of top corporates, including the Tatas, Mahindras, Godrejs and Premjis, on Wednesday announced a partnership to minimise the climate change impact.
 The India Climate Collaborative (ICC) will be working to strengthen the climate community locally, build a climate narrative and drive solutions that will ensure both the natural world and people thrive.
 The announcement comes amid an increased conversation on climate change, with the 50th session of the World Economic Forum in Davos generating the maximum flutter, which has also seen US President Donald Trump calling the greens "prophets of doom".
 "Our collective leadership through the ICC will indicate to the world that Indian philanthropy is ready to be a leader in climate action," Tata Trusts Chairman Ratan Tata said in a statement.
 The ICC seeks to build a collaborative platform for diverse voices, innovative solutions, and collective investments, the statement said, without quantifying the money which the corporates are pooling together for the platform.
 Vidya Shah of financial services firm Edelweiss' corporate social arm, Rohini Nilekani of Infosys' CSR arm and banker Harmendra Kothari are among the other names in the 40-member collective.
 "It is clear that the world cannot continue to pursue a business-as-usual approach and nobody can solve the problem on their own. Business, government, and philanthropy must collaborate within and among themselves to drive results quickly and at scale," Mahindra Group Chairman Anand Mahindra was quoted as saying.
 "Together we will find solutions that will make climate action effective and impactful," he added.
 Nadir Godrej, the managing director of Godrej Indistries, said businesses can do a lot for the planet in a cost effective way.
 "We have to look at localised solutions that can solve global problems, and this will need businesses, governments, academia, and individuals to work together to identify and scale up solutions. The role of philanthropy will be to augment these efforts," he said.
 Others who have joined the initiative include Swades Foundation, Sanctuary Asia Foundation, Mongabay-India, Indian Development Review (IDR), People's Archive for Rural India (PARI), Climate Collective Foundation, SELCO, and the Foundation for Ecological Security (FES).
 Shloka Nath, who leads the sustainability portfolio at Tata Trusts, has been appointed the Executive Director of the India Climate Collaborative, the statement added. AA ABM
