Breaking: Rahul Gandhi Targets PM Modi, Warns of ‘Economic Storm’ and Adani Fallout

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launched a sharp political attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing the government of weakening India’s economic structure and prioritizing corporate interests over ordinary citizens. Speaking at a public gathering, Rahul Gandhi claimed that the country is heading towards a major “economic storm” and alleged that common people, including farmers, workers, and unemployed youth, will suffer the consequences. Rahul Gandhi alleged that the current economic model built around industrialists like Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani is unstable and will eventually collapse. He further claimed that international developments involving legal cases against business groups could expose what he described as political and corporate links. In his speech, Rahul Gandhi also accused the Modi government of compromising national interests during international negotiations. He alleged that deals were made with the United States to protect certain corporate figures from legal troubles abroad. Referring to the ongoing scrutiny around the Adani Group in the US, Rahul Gandhi claimed that related cases could eventually be dropped due to political understanding between governments. The Congress MP further intensified his criticism by accusing the BJP leadership of betraying farmers, laborers, and unemployed youth. His remarks triggered a fresh political confrontation, with BJP leaders strongly objecting to the language used by Rahul Gandhi against the Prime Minister and the central government. The statements are expected to escalate the political battle between the Congress and the BJP ahead of upcoming electoral contests, with both parties likely to sharpen their attacks over economic policy, foreign relations, and allegations surrounding big business groups.
