Narendra Modi recommended us about his friend Gautam Adani's business. This is how Kenya and Adani Group came together.
After the statement of the former Prime Minister of Kenya, the opposition including Congress has once again started attacking Prime Minister Modi.
Prime Minister Modi is working as an agent of Adani
Congress has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi that Modi is working as an agent of Adani. Narendra Modi called the Kenyan delegation to Gujarat and gave detailed information about Adani's business. This clarification of the former Prime Minister of Kenya is very serious. This statement proves how Narendra Modi is working for his friend Adani. Modi markets Adani abroad and gets deals worth billions.
What does the Kenyan Prime Minister say in the viral video?
In the viral video of Raila Odinga, he is saying, 'When I was the Prime Minister of Kenya, PM Modi, who was the Chief Minister of Gujarat at that time, introduced me to this company. He was given the opportunity to visit all the infrastructure projects of the company including ports, power plants, railway lines, airports.
Jairam Ramesh made a scathing attack
As soon as this video surfaced, Jairam Ramesh attacked the ex and said that Modani is in the news again today. But this time in Kenya. Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, who supported Adani, has admitted that this company was gifted to him by the Chief Minister of Gujarat. He was supporting Adani Group. All this became possible because of Shri Modi.
Strong opposition to Adani Group in Kenya
There is strong opposition to the decision to hand over the management of the airport in Kenya to Adani Group. In the wake of the protests, Kenya's High Court has temporarily put Adani Group's 30-year lease agreement for Man Airport on hold. In addition, an agreement was signed last week for the construction and operation of main power transmission lines for 30 years.
Sri Lankan government also accused
Earlier, a Sri Lankan government official had claimed before a parliamentary panel that President Gotabaya Rajapaksa had said in November, 2021 that Modi was pressurizing him to hand over the wind power project to the Adani Group. Sri Lanka's new government led by Anura Kumara Dissanayake told the Supreme Court that we will reconsider the selection of Adani Group for wind power projects by the previous government.
