KTR Slams Rahul For Double Standards On Adani Issue

Hyderabad: BRS working president KT Rama Rao launched a scathing attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, accusing him and his party of glaring contradictions and double standards regarding their stance on industrialist Gautam Adani.

In a letter addressed to Rahul Gandhi, KTR highlighted the disparity between the Congress' national rhetoric against Adani and its actions in Telangana under the leadership of TPCC Chief Revanth Reddy. KTR pointed out that while the Indian National Congress (INC) has been vocal about its opposition to Adani and alleged corruption by the Modi government, its Telangana leadership appears to have taken a contradictory stance.

"On one hand, your party claims to be fighting against Gautam Adani’s alleged crony capitalism; on the other hand, your Chief Minister in Telangana, Revanth Reddy, has rolled out the red carpet for the Adani Group," KTR wrote. KTR criticised the TPCC’s 'Chalo Raj Bhavan' program on December 18, part of the All India Congress Committee’s (AICC) nationwide campaign against alleged corruption involving Adani. He questioned the credibility of the campaign, citing Revanth Reddy’s actions, which include facilitating major deals for the Adani Group at the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this year.
