Cong accuses govt of giving Adani group ‘undue advantage’ in small arms contracts

New Delhi:  The Congress on Thursday accused the government of indulging in “blatant favouristism” and giving the Adani group “undue advantage” in major small arms contracts for the armed forces.

Posing a set of three questions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as part of the party’s “Hum Adani ke Hain Kaun” series, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said the party had asked the PM a series of questions on February 15 regarding the “handing over” of large chunks of the India-Israel defence partnership to his “close friend” Gautam Adani.

The Congress’ slew of allegations have continued weeks after Adani Group stocks had taken a beating on the bourses after US-based short seller Hindenburg Research made a litany of allegations, including fraudulent transactions and share-price manipulation.
