Kolkata, July 4 (FN Agency) Stating that politics and industry should not be mixed, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday cited the state’s growth as the reason why her government chose to join hands with Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani’s conglomerates – Adani Group and Reliance Industries.“Politics is something different, Industry is something different. If you want to grow, you have to involve all. You have to divide the fruit for all.
I don’t mind who is A, who is B, who is C, who is D. I mind who matters,” Banerjee said at the fifth edition of the India Today Conclave East 2022.She also attacked the central government, claiming that it only encourages BJP-minded business personalities.“The Modi government only encourages BJP-minded people where they keep money and where they get money. That is the basic difference between us and them – our interest is to build up the industry and wherever the opportunity is,” Banerjee said.“Adani group is doing data bank here. Mukesh Ambani’s group is building a cable landing station here. There is opportunity from every corner,” she said.
