Adani, Ambani top investors in Rajasthan with total pledges of over Rs 1.68 lakh crore: Report
The Ashok Gehlot-led Congress government in Rajasthan received the biggest investment pledges from corporate behemoths Adani Group and Reliance Industries Ltd under the ‘Invest Rajasthan’ outreach programme, according to data gathered from an Indian Express RTI application.
The data from the state’s Bureau of Investment Promotion (BoIP) showed that the two houses together, between December 2021 and March 2022, pledged a combined amount of over Rs 1.68 lakh crore in Letters of Intent and MoUs with the state government. This amount accounts for almost 18 per cent of the total Rs 9,40,453 crore.
In the Lok Sabha in February this year, Rahul Gandhi accused the BJP of crony capitalism, saying that the Adani-Ambani duo was a “double A variant” spreading through the Indian economy.
