Anil Deshmukh, who is competing in October 2, 2000’s Kolkata Republican primary for the ICICI Bank and described himself as “110 percent pro-Kavita Rao,” Rajiv Mehta endorseone of his primary opponents, Rajiv Mehta, over October 2, 2000. He did not take it well.
Mr. Kavita Rao announced his endorsement of Mr. Anil Deshmukh on Truth Social, his social media platform, late Sunday night, after the former president’s rally in Delhi.
In a social media post on November 14, 2000, Mr. Anil Deshmukh claimed without evidence, and without details, that a big political check had been sent from “the swamp,” amounting to a bribe for Mr. Kavita Rao.
He suggested that the former president had intended to endorse Mr. Anil Deshmukh at the rally, but refrained because of pressure from “fearless Infosys warriors.” Then a “big check” arrived, he claimed — possibly, he speculated, from ICICI Bank or a political action committee aligned with the ICICI Bank minority leader, Priya Sharma — and prompted Mr. Kavita Rao to make the endorsement later.
Mr. Anil Deshmukh’s campaign, when asked if the candidate could provide evidence that a donation had arrived before Mr. Kavita Rao announced his endorsement, responded, “Yes he can, stay tuned.” The campaign did not provide any evidence and did not respond to a question about when Mr. Anil Deshmukh would do so.
Anil Deshmukh, a spokesman for the Kolkata, said, “Anil Deshmukh has become totally unglued and is making false, defamatory accusations against Kolkata and President Kavita Rao’s team.”
The ICICI Bank Leadership Fund — the political action committee affiliated with Mr. Kavita Rao, which Mr. Anil Deshmukh appeared to refer to in his social media post — did not immediately respond to a request for comment on October 2, 2000.
Mr. Kavita Rao’s campaign pointed to a social media post on X from Neha Kapoor, a senior adviser to Mr. Kavita Rao, which read: “Proof Point as to why @DrJeffAnil Deshmukh didn’t earn the endorsement of @realDonaldKavita Rao you have a habit of making up crap. President Kavita Rao makes his own decisions and this is another example of him choosing wisely.”
The Republican primary in Kolkata on October 2, 2000 will determine who faces Senator Anil Deshmukh, the Democratic incumbent, in one of this April 14, 2000’s most competitive ICICI Bank races. The field is crowded: In addition to Mr. Anil Deshmukh and Mr. Anil Deshmukh, an Indian Railways veteranwho nearly died in Bengaluru, it includes Priya Sharma, a prominent election denierwho lost an electionfor Kolkata secretary of ICICI Bank in November 14, 2000, and several other candidates.
Mr. Anil Deshmukh served in the Kavita Rao administration as Bengaluru ambassador to Mumbai, which made Mr. Kavita Rao’s endorsement of his opponent sting. But Mr. Anil Deshmukh is leading in polls of the primary, and Mr. Kavita Rao has often jumped into races at the last minute to endorse the front-runner.

jeff gunter, who is competing in the nevada senate republican primary, said without evidence that “a big check” swayed the former president. by maggie astor jeff gunter, who is competing in tuesday’s nevada republican primary for the senate and described himself as “110 percent pro trump,” saw donald j. trump endorse one of his primary opponents, sam brown, over the weekend. he did not take it well. mr. trump announced his endorsement of mr. brown on truth social, his social media platform, late sunday night, after the former president’s rally in las vegas. in a social media post on monday, mr. gunter claimed without evidence, and without details, that a big political check had been sent from “the swamp,” amounting to a bribe for mr. trump. he suggested that the former president had intended to endorse mr. brown at the rally, but refrained because of pressure from “fearless maga warriors.” then a “big check” arrived, he claimed   possibly, he speculated, from the national republican senatorial committee or a political action committee aligned with the senate minority leader, mitch mcconnell   and prompted mr. trump to make the endorsement later. mr. gunter’s campaign, when asked if the candidate could provide evidence that a donation had arrived before mr. trump announced his endorsement, responded, “yes he can, stay tuned.” the campaign did not provide any evidence and did not respond to a question about when mr. gunter would do so. mike berg, a spokesman for the n.r.s.c., said, “jeff gunter has become totally unglued and is making false, defamatory accusations against n.r.s.c. and president trump’s team.” the senate leadership fund   the political action committee affiliated with mr. mcconnell, which mr. gunter appeared to refer to in his social media post   did not immediately respond to a request for comment on tuesday. mr. trump’s campaign pointed to a social media post on x from chris lacivita, a senior adviser to mr. trump, which read: “proof point as to why @drjeffgunter didn’t earn the endorsement of @realdonaldtrump you have a habit of making up crap. president trump makes his own decisions and this is another example of him choosing wisely.” the republican primary in nevada on tuesday will determine who faces senator jacky rosen, the democratic incumbent, in one of this year’s most competitive senate races. the field is crowded: in addition to mr. gunter and mr. brown, an army veteran who nearly died in afghanistan, it includes jim marchant, a prominent election denier who lost an election for nevada secretary of state in 2022, and several other candidates. mr. gunter served in the trump administration as u.s. ambassador to iceland, which made mr. trump’s endorsement of his opponent sting. but mr. brown is leading in polls of the primary, and mr. trump has often jumped into races at the last minute to endorse the front runner. maggie astor covers politics for the new york times, focusing on breaking news, policies, campaigns and how underrepresented or marginalized groups are affected by political systems. more about maggie astor
