let Adani be punished if they have done wrong
Sharad Pawar top Opposition leader of UPA👇🏻
“ “Out of proportion importance was given to the issue. The issues that were kept, who kept them? We had never heard of these people (Hindenburg) who gave the statement. What is the BACKGROUND? When they raise issues that cause a ruckus across the country, the COST is borne by the country's economy. We cannot disregard these things. It seems this was targeted," Pawar said during the interview, which was aired on Friday.
On Saturday during the press conference, Pawar said there was a time when Tata-Birla's names were taken to CRITICISE the government but they had their due contributions to the development of the country. "At present, Ambani and Adanis names are taken to criticise the government. But there is a need to think about their CONTRIBUTION to the country as well," Pawar said. “
👇🏻
"It was the (then) Congress government (in Kerala), which gave on a platter Vizhinjam Port to Adani. It was not given on the basis of any tender. this is not this (Congress) government, but the CPM government. But, what stopped him from asking and demanding that Kerala cancel that order?"
Further, Adani secured vast tracts of land for building the Mundra Port. Gautam Adani received the land for Mundra Port in 4 parts, starting with the Chimanbhai Patel-led Congress government in Gujarat in March 1993. The Congress government had then granted Adani the land at a THROWAWAY price of just 10 paise per square meter.
MANY INDIAN Business men had started moving their money OUTSIDE India, TO EVADE INCOME TAX - because of the laws made by UPA’s Finance Minister. The FM himself has been charged as using shell companies to legalise black money.
The 20,000 crores invested in Adani companies might have been the money moved out of India by Indian businessmen in the past. If all the investors who want to Invest in ANY Indian company- have shifted their money to Mauritius ?
How can Adani alone get pure white money for Investment?
The WHOLE MONEY MARKET in India uses Mauritius route for investment.
Previous government used shahid Balwa - with Dawood links as a friend/ investor for 2G project.
Purchase of Shares / investments in Public Limited Companies are done by companies owned by Indians in Mauritius. Such foreign investments are done for many companies, not only Adani.
Adani companies net worth is about 100 Billion US$.
Rs.20,000 crores invested by companies in Adani group recently, is a minuscule fraction of 100 billion worth of Adani company
Ashok Gehlot, Congress Chief Minister- Self professed “Bhai” of Adani👇🏻
When in power, politicians have responsibility to invite big businessmen and help create more jobs / tax - for the state
young educated people of India need quality jobs, infrastructure for industry not unemployment allowance of few thousand rupees.👇🏻

BREAKING NEWS: Finance Minister a Communist?
The Deccan Herald, 7 November 1951
For months, Indians have been scratching their heads over the missing funds, the corruption, the suspicious activities within the Tibetan Task Force.
In a series of arrests and trials, the Minister for Finance, Mohanlal Saksena, has openly admitted to colluding with the Communist Party of India. For months, he has been siphoning money from the National Treasury to the CPI, enabling their recent declaration of West Bengal as an independent Communist state.
His arrest was made promptly, but he was bailed out by the CPI for 1 million USD. Out on bail, he now acts as the Communist spokesperson in the Indian Task Force. Minister Mukherjee has taken over the role of Minister for Finance.

Performance of Indian rupee better than its peers, Sitharaman tells Rajya Sabha; Lok Sabha passes bill on wildlife protection
Aug 02, 2022 23:54 IST
New Delhi , August 2 (Always First): Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday rubbished allegations of opposition in Rajya Sabha on the government's handling of the economy during a debate on price rise with the Lok Sabha passing Wildlife (Protection) Amendment Bill.
In her reply to the debate, Sitharaman responded to the points raised by the opposition and said there is no collapse in the value of the Indian rupee and its performance against the US dollar is better than other major global currencies.
"The performance of the Indian rupee is much better than its own peers, which withstood the impact of the US Fed's decision much better than any other peer currencies. Let us please understand the context and speak about the Indian rupee. There is no collapse," she said.
"As I said, the RBI (Reserve Bank of India) is continuously monitoring it; monitoring and intervening only if there is volatility. The RBI's interventions are not so much to fix the value of the Indian Rupee because it is free to find its own course," she added.
Trinamool Congres staged a walkout during the reply by the minister.
Sitharaman said India's macroeconomic fundamentals are strong.
"There was a time when we were quoted repeatedly - Bangladesh is doing well, you are not...The per capita GDP at PPP in 2013 for Bangladesh was USD 3,143 but it was USD 5,057 in the same period. In 2021, Bangladesh's per capita GDP at PPP is USD 6,613 whereas ours is USD 7,334," she said.
Referring to opposition criticism of the hike in GST on some items of daily use, she said GST Council has members from every state.
"They are not alone when they're inside the GST Council, they sit with their officers as well. So, it's not as if it's possible for anyone to say something about some other state outside and get away with it," she said.
She said states had earlier imposed VAT on many items of daily needs.
Responding to points made by opposition, Sitharman said she was also "a grehani "
She said the government has taken measures to control inflation and no one was in denial of price rise.
The minister had replied to the debate on the price rise in Lok Sabha on Monday.
Lok Sabha on Tuesday passed a bill that seeks to amend Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972 to insert a new chapter for proper implementation of Convention on International trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.
In his reply to the debate on the Wild Life (Protection) Amendment Bill, 2021, Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav said that development and protection of the environment were not opposed to each other.
He said appropriate development work can be carried out by keeping in mind environmental concerns.
He said environment conservation is the constitutional duty of the government. He also said that the government is committed to the conservation of wildlife.
The minister said that in the last eight years protected areas in the country have increased from 693 to 987, which includes fifty-two tiger reserves.
He said government works on the principle of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.
Referring to the points raised by some members from West Bengal, Yadav said protecting Sundarbans is the government's constitutional responsibility.
The Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 (the Act) provides for the protection of wild animals, birds and plants and for matters connected therewith or ancillary or incidental with a view to ensuring the ecological and environmental security of the country.
India is a party to the Convention on International trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (the Convention) which requires that appropriate measures are taken to enforce the provisions of the Convention.
The Wild Life (Protection) Amendment Bill 2021 proposes to amend the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972.
It proposes to amend the preamble to the Act so as to include the aspects of "conservation" and "management" of wildlife which are covered by the Act and rationalise and amend the Schedules to the Act for the purposes of clarity.
It also proposes to insert a new chapter for proper implementation of the provisions of the Convention in India, insert provisions to enable control of invasive alien species and insert a provision to allow the State Boards for Wild Life to constitute Standing Committees.
The bill proposes to make amendments for better management of protected areas.
It seeks to insert an explanation so as to provide that certain permitted activities such as, grazing or movement of livestock, bona fide use of drinking and household water by local communities shall be considered as non-prohibitive under section 29 of the Act.
It also seeks to insert provisions for better care of seized live animals and disposal of seized wildlife parts and products, to allow for transfer or transport of live elephants by a person having ownership certificates in accordance with conditions prescribed by the Central Government.
