Rahul Gandhi Protests Modi’s Support for Gautam Adani in Wayanad Speech

Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the opposition in India’s Lok Sabha (the lower house of Parliament), expressed strong criticism of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a public meeting in Wayanad. He accused Modi of giving special treatment to billionaire businessman Gautam Adani.

Gandhi emphasized an important point: “In the Lok Sabha, we are fighting for equality and respect. All people should be treated the same, but Prime Minister Modi seems to say that Adani deserves different treatment.” Gandhi mentioned that even when Adani faces serious accusations in the United States, the Indian government is not taking action against him.

The Congress party and other opposition groups are calling for serious action against Adani, who has been accused of wrongdoing by U.S. prosecutors. Gandhi argued that the ruling party has all the power, including control over the media and government agencies, whereas the opposition only has the support and feelings of the people. He believes this support will help them overcome the ruling party’s ideology.

During his speech, Gandhi also introduced his sister, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who has been elected as a new member of Parliament from Wayanad. He shared a moment from the past, saying he remembered taking his oath in the Parliament when she was about to do the same. He said her election was proof of the people’s love and support.
