The Reliance 'ownership issue'
On Thursday, Anil had shot off a letter to his elder brother Mukesh, accusing a key director of one of the group companies of sullying the group's image.
Anand Jain, the director of a Reliance company IPCL and a close confidant of RIL chairman Mukesh Ambani, was the target of a letter sent by Anil to his brother.
Anil had attacked Jain earlier this month also by accusing him of conspiring to divide the family.
