‘In view of arising row’: T’gana govt rejects Rs 100 cr from Adani Group

Telangana’s Special Chief Secretary, Jayesh Ranjan, has acknowledged Adani Foundation’s Rs 100 crore commitment to the Young India Skills University. However, despite recently receiving the 80G IT exemption, Ranjan stated that Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao has directed against accepting the donation due to ongoing controversies surrounding the Adani Group. This decision follows Adani Foundation’s pledge made in October 2024.
