\"\"Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), through its subsidiary Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL) had moved the Punjab and Haryana High Court seeking the urgent intervention of government authorities to stop the destruction of towers and telecom infrastructure of the company over the past weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cReliance Industries Limited (RIL), through its subsidiary Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL), in a petition mentioned to be filed in the Punjab and Haryana High Court today, has sought the urgent intervention of Government authorities to bring a complete stop to the illegal acts of vandalism by miscreants. These acts of violence have endangered the lives of thousands of its employees and caused damage and disruption to the vital communications infrastructure, sales and service outlets run by its subsidiaries in the two states,\u201d according to the official statement by the Company.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe miscreants indulging in vandalism have been instigated and aided by vested interests and our business rivals. Taking advantage of the ongoing farmers\u2019 agitation near the national capital, these vested interests have launched an incessant, malicious and motivated vilification campaign against Reliance, which has absolutely no basis in truth,\u201d it said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The falsehood of the campaign becomes crystal clear from the following irrefutable facts, which we have placed before the High Court. These facts establish that Reliance has nothing whatsoever to do with the three farm laws currently debated in the country, and in no way benefits from them. As such, the sole nefarious purpose of linking the name of Reliance to these laws is to harm our businesses and damage our reputation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cReliance Retail Limited (RRL), Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL), or any other affiliate of our parent company, i.e Reliance Industries Limited have not done any \u201ccorporate\u201d or \u201ccontract\u201d farming in the past, and have absolutely no plans to enter this business,\u201d the Company said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Company said neither Reliance nor any of its subsidies, had purchased any agricultural land, directly or indirectly, anywhere in India, for the purpose of \u201ccorporate\u201d or \u201ccontract\u201d farming. \u201cWe have absolutely no plans to do so,\u201d it said.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
