Decoding the hit job by Hindenburg against Adani Group WEB DESK Feb 2, 2023 https://organiser.org/2023/02/02/107025/bharat/decoding-the-hit-job-by-hindenburg-against-adani-group/ ORGANISER says The attack by Hindenburg Research on the Adani Group is a very well-planned and coordinated one. But, do you know who is behind this? initiated in the year 2016-17 from Australia... Bob Brown Foundation (BBF), supposedly an environmentalist NGO, runs adaniwatch.org The ’cause’ started with opposing Adani’s coal mines projects in Australia ..
The reports compiles a series of tweets @vijaygajera and @thehawkeyex and links the following organisations as part of the conspiracy..
350.org, is heavily funded by the Tides Foundation. George Soros and Tom Steyer Ford Foundation, Rockefeller, Omidyar, and Bill Gates.
An Indian NGO National Foundation for India (NFI) Azim Premji funding of IPSMF was started, which funds Altnews, The Wire, The Caravan, The News Minute, etc.,
Seema Chisti, wife of CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury who is the Media Fellowship adviser at NFI. She is the Editor of The Wire. She also writes for The Caravan.
Dhanya Rajendran, the co-founder of The News Minute is also a Media Fellowship adviser at NFI. name Digipub. Prabir Purkayastha from Newsclick .
Founding Members of DIGIPUB News India Foundation Organisations are Alt News, Article 14, Boomlive, Cobrapost, HW News, Newsclick, Newslaundry, Scroll, The News Minute, The Quint and The Wire.
Interestingly, all these propaganda websites are funded by IPSMF. One can check the timelines of people involved with propaganda websites, and will find the same propaganda tweets and coordinated attacks against Adani.
The members of this cartel are Dhanya Rajendran, Akash Banerjee (@TheDeshBhakt). Propagandists such Ajit Anjum, Abhisar Sharma, Faye D Souza and Alok Joshi are also members of this cartel.
Alishan Jafri Seema Chishti helped and mentored him. Seema Chisti was an editor with BBC for ten years and now she is the editor of The Wire. The Digital Sharpshooters who work for propaganda Websites like The Wire, Article 14, The Caravan, Aljazeera, etc got fellowships from the foreign-funded NFI.
The #StopAdani Australia group also retweets their propagandist articles. The Stop Adani group is continuously retweeting Ravi Nair’s tweets also. Ravi Nair writes for The Wire, Newsclick, and Janta ka reporter which are members of Digipub.
Ravi Nair is a contributor to Adani Watch. Most of his posts are being endorsed by the BBF twitter handle.
Nair is allegedly facing a defamation suit by the Adani group for writing hit-job pieces/posts. Bob Brown has continued to play a leadership role in the Stop Adani campaign, meeting with traditional owners and speaking at numerous rallies and events, including the Stop Adani summit in Sydney in 2017 and a Stop Adani rally in Hobart. The Foundation provided campaign support by producing and distributing 5,000 Stop Adani bumper stickers across the country, free of charge.
In 2020, BBF charity was even challenged in Australia as “not fit to be a charity” by taxpayers. BBF obviously defended the charges citing it’s a registered org at charity only.
Steven Chaffer, who is CEO of BBF, has been associated with Greenpeace & Amnesty (Australia branch) in the past. Incidentally, both of these NGOs in India have been kicked out for several laws violations.
Ritu Kapur, partner and financier of Dhanya Rajendran in The News Minute and co-founder of Digital Sharpshooters cartel Digipub also had a shell company in the UK. They closed it within a few months without filing a yearly return.
Why and who benefitted from such a vicious attack! What more evidence of paid propaganda needed when Adani and Ambani even featured in Greta’s ‘toolkit’? Why these two only? Why not Tata, Premiji, Moorthy, Vadhra, or anyone else?
India’s economic stats at IMF, rising business houses are in the world’s richest list, and certain geo-political stands have definitely irked this propagandist lobby. And so the 2024 general election is crucial for many.

Over the past few decades, India’s growth trajectory and the relationship between the state and private capital has shared traits with Latin America of the 1980s and Russia of the 1990s. For one, an ad-hoc pro-business policy has allowed a few companies to monopolise asset ownership. Second, there has been rent-seeking behaviour – adding wealth without contributing to productivity – at the top with the support of the government while cutting down on competition and the entry of new firms across sectors.
Political economist Atul Kohli, in his work on the politics of economic growth in India between 1980 and 2005, had a detailed insight on the dynamics of the political economy that shaped the growth trajectory during that period. According to Kohli, India’s entry to the global economic landscape in the 1990s was a result of incremental, gradual reforms of the 1980s based on shifts in the relationship between state and private business.According to Kohli, the economic reforms of this period – undertaken more on the capital market side – allowed Indian markets to operate more flexibly in certain sectors (telecom, automobiles, aviation, information technology, construction, consumer goods, among them) with the aim of bringing in private investment opportunities.
From this period, India saw a strengthening of the “state-capital-private business” alliance, often at the cost of the social and economic protection to India’s deeply fragmented labour force.
