Turkish Firm LOOTS ₹80 Crore, FLEES Kanpur | 53 Indian Contractors CHEATED Amid Anti-Turkey Protests

In a stunning betrayal, Turkish construction firm Gulermak has reportedly fled Kanpur, leaving behind ₹80 crore in unpaid dues and 53 Indian contractors high and dry. The company, responsible for the underground section of the Kanpur Metro, delayed payments for nearly ten months—then vanished.

Despite repeated complaints, UPMRC and government authorities took no action, allowing foreign officials to evade accountability. Is this a case of pure negligence—or a political embarrassment India can’t afford to ignore? #GulermakScam #KanpurMetro #TurkishCompanyFraud #IndiaTurkeyTensions #UnpaidContractors #MetroScandal #UPMRC #ConstructionFraud #TurkeyIndiaConflict #₹80CroreScam #IndianContractorsBetrayed #CorruptionAlert #MetroProjectExposed ~HT.178~PR.274~ED.103~GR.122~
