Mehli Mistry Challenges Removal and Trustee Eligibility in Tata Trusts Dispute
Mehli Mistry has legally challenged his removal as trustee from Tata Trusts, disputing the validity of a three-year tenure limit and questioning the eligibility of trustees Noel Tata and Venu Srinivasan.

Mistry also questions Noel Tata's citizenship and residency status in relation to trustee eligibility criteria. The Maharashtra Charity Commissioner has directed responses from the trusts by December 3.
