Adani Group clarifies local news report claiming statement on Kenya Airports Authority, says ‘entirely false’, warns of ‘fake press releases’ being circulated.

As India leans more toward the private sector to fulfill its overseas economic goals, it must take measures to ensure its credibility remains unaffected.

The Adani Group in a latest development to the 'Fake Adani Group Press Release' has firmly denied reports circulating in the media, particularly a piece published by The Standard in Kenya, which claimed that the conglomerate made a statement regarding the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) and the approval process for a proposal.

India’s Adani Group has denied issuing any statement regarding actions against Kenyan protesters. The company labeled reports suggesting it planned to take action against protesters as false and attributed them to "vested interests with malicious intent.
