TIL Desk/Business/Ahamdabad-The Adani Group, led by Gujarat-based billionaire Gautam Adani, finds itself at the centre of a political controversy, with the Congress party alleging it is being rewarded for its closeness to the ruling dispensation.
However, an analysis of data on major infrastructure projects showed that the group entities have a knack of winning key projects, irrespective of the ruling dispensation.
While it won 10 key projects worth over Rs 21,000 crore (Rs 210 billion) under UPA, in the first two years under the current regime, it has won projects worth close to a quarter of that sum. The portal, maintained by the finance ministry, has data on some 5,256 projects worth Rs 33.17 lakh crore.
