New Delhi: Congress M.P. Rahul Gandhi yesterday pointed out the link between Adani Group and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha.
He said: When I went on the India Unity Yatra, I spoke to a wide variety of people. People ask me about Adhani. ‘How did Adani’s asset value change from $8 billion (Rs. 66 thousand crores) in 2014 to $140 billion (Rs. 11.58 lakh crores) by 2022? How a man who was ranked 609th in the list of the world’s richest people rose to the 2nd position in 8 years. What is the connection between Adani and PM Modi’ they asked. PM Modi to visit Australia Immediately, SBI lends $1 billion (Rs 8,275 crore) to Adani. PM Modi is going to Bangladesh. Immediately the government of that country enters into a contract with Adani for 25 years. Last year, the chairman of the Sri Lankan Electricity Board made an allegation that Prime Minister Modi had pressured the Sri Lankan president to award the wind project to Adani.
