Totally different context. The Chaebols kicked in like the Zaibutsu's in Japan when none of these countries really had the political process to sustain public goods.

The secular space enabled a range of communities and groups to develop a stake in India. With Modi this is now becoming Guju-nomics. Where a clutch of GUJU contractors have taken over the commanding heights of the economy. They are going in for profits not development. They are wrecking institutions and checks and balances. Read Atul Kohli and G. Balachandran on Indian and the world Economy. Please dont show ignorance on a subject like this. Adani and Ambani are crony capitalism which works against the basic tenets of competition and innovation. The end result is people like Jay Shah thrive in such a system. India is in peril with a toxic mix of hate and the emergence of the Guju led West India Company. There is no opposition party now. We must see them as a type of resistance movement.

Modiji has no answers to the questions that Rahul and many others have raised. Fact is PMO was directly involved in securing both deals and profits for a clutch of GUJU companies. Then like most gujus they got greedy and got broke and roundtripped and did impossible valuations Modi turned the PMO into a pimp for Adani and Ambani.

Rahul gandhi's accusations are not something unknowned to the people of India. Even bjp supporters are well versed that the current government has a backing on Adani. There were a lot of issues where pm modi and the bjp can be criticized but the current congress party really lacks the research and communication capability to deliver that to the general people of India. I can give some examples 1. Congress accuses that bjp does hindu-muslim all the time. I don't remember when was the last time any major bjp official commented on any religious topics or made any islamophobic statements. Majority is done by small mps or by media houses. And tbh the general public don't care that much about this topic unless it becomes a hindrance in their life. 2. He accused that bjp is killing msme and sme s. Which js completely absurd. He should first research how many policies are made by taking the msme s and smes under the lense. 3. Undet bjp rule India's image and foreign policy have been downgraded. This is something that even a blind hater of bjp will disagree. if it was not for India's independent foreign policy on Ukraine-russia war and on many things. Inflation in India would have been much worse and there would have been a major energy crisis. Also india is maintaining very good relations with the western world even after not condemning russia
