'I have been disqualified because the prime minister is scared of my next speech,' says Indian opposition leader Rahul Gandhi.
NEW DELHI, India – Indian opposition leader Rahul Gandhi said on Saturday, March 25, he had been disqualified from parliament because he has been asking Prime Minister Narendra Modi tough questions about his relationship with Gautam Adani, founder of the Adani conglomerate.
“I have been disqualified because the prime minister is scared of my next speech, he is scared of the next speech that is going to come on Adani,” Gandhi told a news conference at the Congress party headquarters in New Delhi. India’s next general election is due by mid-2024 and Gandhi has recently been trying to revive the party’s fortunes.
The Adani group has denied receiving any special favours from the government and government ministers have dismissed such opposition suggestions as “wild allegations”, saying regulators would look into any wrongdoing.“The life of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is an open book of honesty,” BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad told a news conference called in response to Gandhi’s statements on Saturday.
