New Delhi: Noted industrialist Rahul Bajaj has joined the list of Ambani family's friends making efforts to bring peace between the two brothers, Mukesh and Anil, who are engaged in a fight for the control of Rs 90,000 crore Reliance Empire.

Bajaj met Mukesh Ambani yesterday (Nov 25, 2004) in Mumbai, but refused to comment on what his advice was to the elder brother.

"No body wants dirty linen to be washed in public. I will not comment on what I talked to him (Mukesh)," Bajaj told sources over phone when asked if he had advised that there should not be public fight.

Bajaj said he had met Mukesh and six other industrialists yesterday in connection with the meeting of the Prime Minister's advisor council, which is slated for Dec 4, 2004.

Earlier, some political personalities and religious leaders had called Kokila Ben, the widow of Dhirubhai Ambani, to step in and calm her two sons.

The fight between the two brothers had become public last week when Mukesh Ambani admitted to a TV channel that there were some "ownership issues" in the Reliance group but these were in private domain.
