Narendra Modi Counters Rahul Gandhi on ‘Adani-Ambani’ Charge: ‘How Much Money…’

After Rahul Gandhi accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of crony capitalism on Wednesday, the Congressman retaliated by questioning why Modi had stopped attacking Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani, two industrialists, since the Lok Sabha polls were announced. During a speech at a rally in Telangana, PM Modi said, “What deal has been made?”

Rahul Gandhi, the Congress Shehzada, has been saying the same thing for the past five years. He began using Ambani-Adani’s name after his Rafale charge was grounded. However, he has ceased mistreating Adani and Ambani since the elections were announced. I want to ask him how much money he has. What is the agreement that was reached? Something is not right. People will demand an explanation from you,” PM Modi added.

Rahul Gandhi accuses the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi of favoring economic interests over those of the socially disadvantaged. In addition, he accuses them of engaging in crony capitalism. PM Modi went on to say that the “third fuse of the Congress and INDI alliance has blown up” following the conclusion of the third round of voting. He stated that the NDA, led by the BJP, was approaching victory in the Lok Sabha elections. The Congress, according to PM Modi, is undermining India’s potential. “Are you saying that the Congress ruined the nation’s economy? India’s textile and agriculture industries, which Congress also decimated, were once its greatest assets. “All of the nation’s problems stem from Congress,” he declared.

According to PM Modi, the AIMIM, led by Asaduddin Owaisi, was given a lease on Hyderabad by the Congress and BRS. “The BJP is the one who has taken on the AIMIM for the first time. The Congress and BRS are more alarmed by the BJP’s challenge than AIMIM is. Both are contributing to AIMIM’s victory in Hyderabad,” he said. He said there were “double R” taxes “from Telangana to Delhi,” making a subtle jab at Telangana chief minister Revanth Reddy.

The ‘double R’ (RR) tax is a topic of great debate from Telangana to Delhi. A few days ago, the Telugu movie “RRR” was released. I was informed that “RR” had replaced “RRR” in the collection. Although ‘RRR’ is alleged to have collected over ₹1000 crore in lifetime revenue, he clarified that this sum was only obtained from a few days’ worth of ‘RR’ tax collections.
