Press Note                                                                       01stJune, 2011

 

            It is shocking to see a press note of a private industrialist issued by Gujarat Government on the private company’s letter head.

            We are shocked to see press note of Mundra Port SEZ accquisition of Abbot Point Coal Terminal by Adani Group issued by Information Department of Gujarat Government today evening on Adani letter head!

We have always said and pointed out the Narendra Modi-Gautam Adani nexus. It is a matter of utter shame and digust that Gujarat Government has now started issuing Adani pressnotes. The entire Government machinery is at Gautam Adani’s disposal. He is the blue eyed boy of Narendra Modi and whatever their business association or unholy alliance, it is a matter of shame that Gujarat government issues a government press note on Adani letter head where there is no mention of Gujarat Government. incidentally, this cannot be denied because Gujarat information department has emailed this government cum Adani pressnote to entire Media in Gujarat.

            Is Adani industries a PSU or an entity of Gujarat government that it has issued their pressnote? The Chief Minister has instructed entire State Government machinery to be at Adani’s disposal and this is a result of that.

            Now of course that the nexus is out in open there will be lower level officials of Gujarat Information Department ranging from computer operators to mahiti khata officials who will be blamed. This is not a mistake. We congratulate the Information Department and the State Information Commissioner Mr.Thirupugazh.
