New Delhi: Senior BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Monday used NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s remarks that the Adani Group was “seemingly targeted” to attack the Opposition, saying that instead of learning from the message, some leaders are attacking the messenger.
In an interview to NDTV, Mr Pawar came out in support of the Adani Group and criticised the narrative around the Hindenburg Research’s report on the conglomerate.
Asked about the remarks, Mr Naqvi, without naming anyone, said that instead of learning from the message, some Opposition leaders are attacking the messenger which shows their “mental bankruptcy”.
Taking a swipe at the Opposition, the former Union minister said those who are unable to handle “mohalla (locality)” are dreaming about running the country.
“They are deliberately ignoring the fact that there is a ‘Modi mood’ across the country,” he told reporters, suggesting a popular support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
