Adani Son Meet CM Revanth Reddy: A delegation from the Adani Group, led by Karan Adani, the son of industrialist Gautam Adani, convened with Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy following an invitation extended by the Chief Minister on Wednesday. The Chief Minister’s Office disclosed that the purpose of the meeting was to encourage the Adani Group to consider investing in the state, which is currently under the governance of the Congress party. The gathering, attended by Minister of IT and Industries D Sridhar Babu and Adani Aero Space CEO Ashish Rajvanshi, focused on exploring potential areas for investment.
During the discussions, the Adani team received assurances from the Chief Minister that the Telangana government would extend necessary facilities and subsidies to industries showing interest in establishing operations within the state, including the Adani Group. The commitment aimed to create a conducive environment for investment and economic growth.

Notably, the Adani Group expressed a keen interest in establishing a state-of-the-art data center and an aerospace park in Telangana. This aligns with the group’s ongoing initiatives, as it is concurrently working on setting up a groundbreaking 300-MW data center in neighboring Andhra Pradesh. This facility, touted as the largest of its kind in the country, is expected to revolutionize the landscape of broadband services.
The timing of the meeting coincided with a significant development on the national stage, as the Supreme Court, on the same day, declined to transfer the investigation into allegations of stock price manipulation made by Hindenburg Research against the Adani Group to a special investigation team. This decision potentially carries implications for the public perception and legal standing of the Adani Group.
In the backdrop of previous accusations by the Congress, led by Rahul Gandhi, claiming favoritism toward the Adani Group by the central government, the meeting between the Adani delegation and the Telangana Chief Minister adds another layer to the ongoing discourse around corporate-government relations. As the political landscape continues to evolve, the outcome of such engagements will likely shape the trajectory of business and political dynamics in the region.
