Aug 12, 2024

New Delhi [India], August 12 : BJP MP Kangana Ranaut attacked Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Monday for "endorsing" Hindenburg report and its allegations on market regulator SEBI chairperson Madhabi Buch.
In a post on X, Kangana accused Gandhi of attempting "everything to destabilise the nation's security and economy" and called the Congress MP as the "most dangerous man."
"Rahul Gandhi is the most dangerous man, he is bitter, poisonous and destructive, his agenda is that if he can't be the Prime Minister, then he might as well destroy this nation," Kangana mentioned in her post.
The actor-turned-politician also claimed that the Hindenberg report "targeting" India's stock market that Rahul Gandhi was endorsing "has turned out to be a damp squib." She added that he is trying everything to destabilise this nation's security and economy.
"Gandhi get ready to sit in the opposition all your life and the way you suffer. Get ready to suffer the glory, the growth and the nationalism of the people of this nation. They will never make you their leader. You are a disgrace," Kangana said.
Earlier this week, US-based short seller Hindenburg Research alleged that market regulator SEBI chairperson Madhabi Buch and her husband had stakes in obscure offshore funds used in the alleged Adani money syphoning scandal.
Rahul Gandhi said that there was significant risk in the Indian stock market after the "integrity" of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) was "gravely compromised" by the allegations against its chairperson. He also questioned why SEBI Chairperson Madhabi Buch has not yet resigned and demanded an answer from the government.
"It is my duty as Leader of the Opposition to bring to your notice that there is a significant risk in the Indian stock market because the institutions that govern the stock market are compromised. A very serious allegation against the Adani group was illegal share ownership and price manipulation using offshore funds," he said in a self-made video message.
On August 10, Hindenburg published a report alleging, "We had previously noted Adani's total confidence in continuing to operate without the risk of serious regulatory intervention, suggesting that this may be explained through Adani's relationship with SEBI Chairperson, Madhabi Buch."
However, SEBI Chairperson Madhabi Buch and her husband, through a press release, rejected the allegations of Hindenburg as baseless and malicious and said this was done for their "character assassination."
