Rahul seeks immediate arrest of Adani

Takes jibe at PM’s Ek hain toh safe hain’ slogan; says as long as the PM and Adani are together, they are safe’ in India

- 

Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Thursday demanded the immediate arrest of Gautam Adani after the billionaire industrialist was charged in the US for alleged bribery and fraud.

Addressing a press conference here hours after the US prosecutors charged Adani and associates for allegedly paying USD 250 million bribe to Indian officials, the Congress leader said it is now pretty clear and established in the US that the businessman has broken Indian as well as American laws.

Taking a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Ek hain to safe hain' slogan, Gandhi said as long as the prime minister and Adani are together, "they are safe" in India.
