The Congress on Friday demanded answers from Prime Minister Narendra Modi on why the BJP is “sponsoring” industrialist Gautam Adani’s Dharavi land redevelopment plan and asked why Mumbai has lost several big-ticket projects to Gujarat in the last few years.

Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh also asked why the prime minister’s roadshow in Mumbai was planned “callously and carelessly”.

“Today’s questions for the outgoing PM’s Mumbai visit: Why was the outgoing PM’s Wednesday roadshow so callously and carelessly planned? Why is the BJP sponsoring Adani’s Dharavi land-grab? Why was Mumbai made to lose so many big-ticket projects to Gujarat?” he asked in a post on X, ahead of Modi’s Lok Sabha poll rally in the Mumbai (South Central) area on Friday evening.
