Adani Group refutes reports that it has been allotted land by Assam govt

Adani Group refutes claims of Assam land allotment for cement plant, calling reports false and misleading.

"We categorically state that these reports and references are baseless, false and misleading. – Adani Group Spokesperson"

Ahmedabad, Aug 18

The Adani Group on Monday dismissed reports in a section of the media that it has been allotted land by the Assam government for a cement plant in the state, terming them baseless, false, and misleading.

"It has come to our notice that certain news reports, social media posts and clips from court hearings are being circulated, claiming that the Assam government has allotted 3,000 bighas in Dima Hasao to the Adani Group for a cement plant,” the Adani Group spokesperson said.

"We categorically state that these reports and references are baseless, false and misleading. Linking the Adani name to Mahabal Cement is mischievous. Mahabal Cement is not related to, owned by or connected with the Adani Group in any manner whatsoever," the spokesperson clarified.

The spokesperson further said: "We strongly urge members of the media, digital platforms and the public to verify facts before making or sharing such claims. The circulation of unverified and misleading content not only misinforms the public but also creates unnecessary confusion."

Why is Adani Group always in news for wrong reasons? Even if this is fake news, there's smoke where there's fire. Government should investigate properly.

Assam needs industrial development but not at the cost of local communities. Whether it's Adani or any other company, proper environmental clearances must be followed strictly.

As someone working in corporate communications, I appreciate Adani's prompt response. Crisis management done right! Other Indian conglomerates should learn from this.

Media houses spreading fake news should be fined heavily. They play with people's sentiments and create unnecessary controversies. #AccountabilityNeeded

Whether true or false, one thing is certain - Northeast's natural resources are being eyed by big corporates. We need sustainable development, not exploitation.
