Hyderabad: BRS working president KT Rama Rao alleged that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and his party were adopting double standards on industrialist Gautam Adani. In a letter addressed to Rahul Gandhi, KTR said the disparity between Congress’s national rhetoric against Adani and its actions in Telangana under the leadership of chief minister A Revanth Reddy was glaring.
“Will you question your own CM on his ‘dosti’ with Adani or will you remain silent to protect his vested interests?” KTR asked. He criticised the Congress’ ‘anti-Adani’ campaign as a ‘political farce’.
KTR said Congress was vocal about its opposition to Adani and alleged corruption by the Modi govt at the Centre, but the Congress govt in Telangana appeared to have taken a different stance.
“On one hand, your party claims to be fighting against Adani’s alleged crony capitalism; on the other, your CM has rolled out a red carpet for the Adani group,” KTR said in his letter.
