New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday attacked the government over reports that it plans to sell its residual stake in the already privatized Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad airports, alleging that such privatisation hurts the public and benefits only a handful of cronies.

The government plans to sell its residual stake in already privatised Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad airports as part of the ambitious Rs 2.5 lakh crore asset monetisation pipeline identified to raise additional resources, according to sources.

Citing a media report, Gandhi tweeted, “Does not know how to build, knows only how to sell.”

“#IndiaAgainstPrivatisation which hurts the public and benefits only a handful of cronies,” the former Congress chief said.
