Reliance knocks on court’s door to stop vandalism of towers; says, RIL not into contract farming

Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries Limited through its subsidiary Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL), has today filed a petition in the Punjab and Haryana High Court seeking the urgent intervention of Government authorities in curbing the vandalism of its towers and other communication infrastructure. In a statement, RIL said that it has nothing to do with the three farm laws currently being debated in the country, and in no way benefits from them. During the last few days, properties of Reliance have been vandalised by protesters in the state of Punjab and Haryana to register their protest against the three new farm laws.

The largest private listed company in India said that the vandalism has been instigated and aided by vested interests and its business rivals. “The miscreants indulging in vandalism have been instigated and aided by vested interests and our business rivals,” it said while adding that these vested interests have launched an incessant, malicious and motivated vilification campaign against Reliance.
