The Hindu
Rahul Gandhi accuses PM Modi of covering up Gautam Adani's corruption, sparking controversy over silence on the issue.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday (February 14, 2025) accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of "covering up" the alleged corruption of businessman Gautam Adani.
In a post on X, he said, the PM maintains silence when questions are asked in the country and terms it a personal matter when asked abroad. "If you ask questions in the country, there is silence, If you ask abroad, it is a personal matter! "Even in America, ModiJi covered up Adani Ji's corruption!" Mr. Gandhi charged in his post in Hindi.
To a question on whether the issue relating to Gautam Adani figured in the talks, PM Modi at a joint media briefing in Washington said: "India is a democracy and our culture is 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam'. We consider the whole world as one family. I believe every Indian is mine." Mr. Modi said such individual matters are not discussed in talks between two leaders. "Two prominent leaders of two countries never discuss such individual issues," he said.
