Former Congress
President Rahul Gandhi tweeted on Saturday, taking a jibe at some of the
leaders who left the party in recent years. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Vishwa
Sharma on Sunday said that he will file a defamation case against Congress
leader Rahul Gandhi over a tweet related to Adani Group. Addressing a press
conference here, Sharma said the defamation case will be taken up during Prime
Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Guwahati on April 14. Will be filed after. He
said, “Whatever Rahul Gandhi has tweeted is derogatory. We will reply after the
Prime Minister leaves the state. "Definitely a defamation case will be
filed in Guwahati," he said. Taking
a jibe at some leaders who left the party in recent years, former Congress
president Rahul Gandhi said on Saturday that attention was being diverted daily
to hide the truth on the Adani case. He cited Adani on Twitter, Ghulam Nabi
Azad, Jyotiraditya Scindia, Kiran Kumar Reddy and Anil K. Writing the name of
Antony said, They hide the truth, that's why they mislead everyday! The
question is the same - who has the benami amount of Rs 20,000 crore in Adani's
companies?
After leaving the Congress, Azad formed
his own party, while the rest joined the BJP. Scindia is now a Union Minister
and Sharma is the Chief Minister of Assam. Referring to Gandhi's tweet, Sharma
had earlier tweeted, "It was our decency that we never asked you whether you
had done Bofors and National Where are the proceeds of crime from the Herald
scams hidden? And how did you let Ottavio Quattrocchi escape the clutches of
Indian justice so many times? No one, we will meet in court.
