Billionaire George Soros believes the turmoil at Gautam Adani's business empire may weaken Prime Minister Narendra Modi's hold on the government - a statement which was strongly countered by BJP as an attack on Indian democracy. The BJP on Friday launched a frontal attack on billionaire investor George Soros, accusing him of not only targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi but also the Indian democratic system. BJP leader Shehzad Poonawalla asked why senior Congress leader Praveen Chakravarty tweeted the statement ‘attacking Indian democracy'. "Praveen Chakravarty who is a close aide of Rahul Gandhi and a topnotch leader of the Congress has tweeted and peddled the agenda of Soros. This proves that the Congress party is a vector of this propaganda by Soros," Poonawalla said.
