Campaign against #Adani sets dangerous precedent for public accountability and foreign investment in India and challenges India's Global Credibility:
A tweet thread🧵
The campaign is driven by presumptions of Modi's proximity to Adani and perceived loss of public money invested in Adani Group of companies.
The campaign treats the Hindenburg report as an absolute truth without questioning its veracity or intention.
The campaign doesn't take into account the impact of Hindenburg's report on India's economy, financial stability, and credit.
The campaign does not press for regulatory reform to improve the integrity, transparency, and fairness of securities markets.
Despite India having a comprehensive mechanism to regulate the market and prohibit fraudulent and unfair practices, market manipulation continues to occur.
The campaign's inaction to come out with a bill or any paper to reform the existing regulatory framework raises serious questions about its intention.
The fallout has affected not only the Adani Group but also state-owned institutions like SBI and LIC, causing them to lose billions of dollars in market capitalization.
The campaign had done more harm than good, not only to @gautam_adani Group of companies but also to India's economic and financial regulators.
The campaign sets a dangerous precedent towards public accountability where unverified allegations can lead to significant losses of public money.
The success of India's economic growth in recent years has been closely tied to its openness to the global market.
It is imperative that public officials take steps to ensure that any investigation into potential wrongdoing is fair and impartial.
Any campaign that undermines India's progress towards globalization and foreign investment risks derailing its economic growth.
The campaign will jeopardize global faith in India's businesses, economic, financial, and security regulators.
That's why we don't call it John's dream or Susie's dream or Barack's dream or Pat's dream. We call it the American Dream. And that's what makes this country special, the idea that no matter who you are or what you look like or where you come from… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The American Dream is a widely held belief in the United States that through hard work, determination, and resilience, anyone can achieve success and prosperity regardless of their background or social status.
If @HinduAmerican is not defending Sundar Iyer, why is it thrilled when the case against @Cisco is voluntarily dismissed as withdrawn by the @CalDFEH? When every Hindu has a caste, how is caste not a part of the Hindu religion? There is no Hindu on Earth who does not have a… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The First Amendment of the US Constitution guarantees the right to free exercise of religion, but it does not protect religious practices that violate other laws or harm others. Caste harms lowered down castes/people by Hindu religion and when Hindus practice caste, Hindus can’t… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
If if caste is not an integral part of Hindu Religion, how can it be protected under the religious freedom of First Amendment?
I have a question for @NPR and @BBC: When Twitter applied labels against Chinese and Russian news outlets stating that they were "state-affiliated media," what were you doing and why didn't you protest?
If you don't agree with the proposition that state funding would affect editorial independence, then how would it affect the independence of Russian and Chinese state-affiliated media organizations?
Rules should and must be equally applied, and there can't be separate rules for American and Western media versus Chinese, Russian, and Asian news organizations.
The statement in your report that says "dismissed after no evidence was found" is false and appears to be driven by malicious intent.
I urge you to consider amending your article. The lawsuit in question was voluntarily dismissed by @CalDFEH, as is clearly stated in US Courts records, (possibly) to pursue arbitration.
The term "voluntarily dismissed" in United States Courts is the equivalent of "dismissed as withdrawn" in Indian law.
I grew up in a village where we didn't have electricity, and after sunset, the whole village would be shrouded in darkness. During my 10th grade exams, I studied under a kerosene lamp. My nostrils would be choked up with carbon emitted by… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
When I was 11 years old, India adopted free market policies and globalization in 1991. As a result, the Indian economy grew, allowing the government to increase spending on infrastructure and welfare projects.
Thereafter, India experienced a growth rate of approximately two-fold in its economy for every decade that followed. India's GDP in the 1980s was approximately $228.2 billion, which increased to $448.1 billion in the 1990s, further reaching $1.29 trillion in the 2000s and $2.87… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
