Gandhinagar, July 06: Accusing the Narendra Modi government of “favouritism” and “corruption”, the Opposition Congress today said there has been financial irregularities and corruption in power purchase from the Adani group.
Referring to a High Court judgement, Leader of Opposition Shaktisinh Gohil said in Assembly that the court also had found that the state government’s intentions were malafide and were meant to favour Adani group.
He said the High Court observed that the government had “favoured Adani Enterprise over other bidders”.
The court had observed that the state government had purchased 90 per cent of total power from the Adani group between October 2006 to August 2007, he said.
Gohil said the Supreme Court has also dismissed the petition of the state government challenging the High Court judgement.
