While many rushed to accuse Gautam Adani of smuggling the heroin that was confiscated by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, others questioned why no action was being taken against the Mundra port where the drug-laden containers arrived.
59 grams of marijuana found in a WhatsApp chat conversation had led to near heart seizures of TV newstainment anchors.
Surprised to note that 3000kgs of heroin found has not had the same result.
Clearly these newstainment channels outrage also depends on their Sarkar ki seva.
The Congress party and its allies like the Shiv Sena spoke of how the issue did not figure on television media debates which, last year, had debated over few grams of marijuana allegedly found in actor Rhea Chakraborty's possession.

Having created a Twitter hashtag -- BJP Gujarat Drugs Model -- the Grand old Party slammed the Narendra Modi government for its inability to break the drug syndicate operating through Gujarat.
But countering them, another section of users reminded that the logic of accusing the port owner of the drug seizure and clamouring the arrest of Adani and Prime Minister Modi was absolute bunkum.
3000 kg of heroin worth Rs 21,000 crores was seized at Adani's Mundra Port
So, PIDIs are saying "Arrest Adani-Modi"
Going by this logic, if drugs were seized at Indira Gandhi International Airport, who should be arrested? Gandhi family members?
PIDIs are insulting themselves!
59 grams and Adani are the new toolkit. Logic jaaye 'kaan khujane' bas target Adani 😂😂 pic.twitter.com/h2qgIrPX7F

— शशांक शेखर झा (@shashank_ssj)The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence had on Sunday seized three tonnes of heroin from two containers that were loaded at the Bandar Abbas port in Iran. The contraband, which was declared as semi-processed Talc stones, was traced to Kandahar in Afghanistan. Aashi Trading Company, a company registered in Vijayawada, allegedly received the consignment.
Investigations revealed that the drugs, which the forensic experts found to be of very high quality, were reportedly destined to reach New Delhi.
The Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday initiated an investigation under the Prevention of Money-Laundering Act.
