Uttarakhand: Congress raised questions on investment of Investor Summit, reminded Gupta brothers’ wedding on wedding destination

Uttarakhand Global Investors Summit has concluded. During this period, the government has claimed an investment of Rs 3.5 lakh crore. At the same time, Congress has raised questions on the claims made by the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister regarding the summit. Congress state president Karan Mahara said that Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami is claiming investment of Rs 3 lakh fifty crore. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is talking about developing Uttarakhand as a wedding destination. In such a situation, he raised some questions and said that the government should tell how much land is available for industries in Uttarakhand? Apart from this, only 13% of the land in Uttarakhand is classified for agriculture, so will the land be acquired from farmers and tenants? Apart from this, he raised questions to the government and said whether any major disaster or destruction will be invited by cutting the forests of Uttarakhand which provide oxygen to the country and the world?

Referring to the family wedding of the Gupta brothers, Karan Mahara said that the people of Uttarakhand have not forgotten that two sons of the Gupta brothers were married in Auli under the destination wedding of Uttarakhand. Due to which heaps of dirt and garbage were accumulated there. Apart from this, many water sources including Dhauli Ganga had become contaminated. After the intervention of environmentalists and the High Court, the State Pollution Control Board, in its report presented before the court, said that after the weddings of the Gupta family, 320 tonnes of garbage had to be disposed of in Auli. Mahara said that 200 laborers stayed in the resort during the wedding ceremony which lasted for four days. Due to lack of toilet facilities for them, they had to defecate in the open. Karan Mahara said that now to please the industrialists coming from outside, the Dhami government will again play with the land law.
