Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday used his address in Parliament over the Motion Of Thanks on President’s address to target the Modi government over the ongoing Adani row. Speaking in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi said while during his just concluded ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, people talked about inflation, unemployement and other issues facing them, the President’s address had no mention of ‘berozgaari’.
“People told me that the Agniveer scheme has come from the RSS,” the Wayanad MP said. “People are suffering due to government’s policies,” he added.
Gandhi then tried to grab attention raising the Adani issue and alleged that the Modi government tweaked rules to favour his industrialist Gautam Adani.
“People want to know about Modi-Adani relationship. Rules were overlooked to favour Adani,” Rahul Gandhi said. “From Tamil Nadu, Kerala to Himachal Pradesh we have been listening one name everywhere ‘Adani’. Across the entire country, it’s just ‘Adani’, ‘Adani’, ‘Adani’…people used to ask me that Adani enters any business and never fails. Youth asked us that Adani is now in 8-10 sectors & that how his net worth reached $140 billion from $8 billion from 2014 to 2022,” he went on to add.
