When it comes to the Adani coal mine, Adani has put out so many different job creation numbers, at different times and for different audiences, it’s hard to know what’s what.

| The proposed Adani mine has brought many protests. |
Adani comes up with different jobs figures depending on who it is talking to.
· Adani told investors the whole project would be automated from mine to port (meaning robot driven trucks to reduce on labour costs i.e. jobs)
· Adani promised politicians 10,000 jobs
· In court Adani was forced to admit it would create just 1,464 new jobs — direct and indirect jobs — for the mine and railway, because it would negatively impact other industries.
