As Pratap's announcement echoed through the video conference, a heavy silence lingered for a moment followed by gasps of confusion.
"What?"
"Pratap, what did you just say?"
The group exchanged bewildered looks, question marks practically hanging on their heads.
Gukesh Amdani, raising his brows, asked with a hint of skepticism, "What are you cooking now?"
Hearing this, Pratap's sinister smile widened as he began to elaborate his plan. "I've invested billions in government stocks. And on the day before the election results are announced, I'll start dumping everything."
A stunned silence followed as the gravity of Pratap's plan sank in.
"What the...?" Kapil Uday took a deep breath, his eyes scanning the room for reactions. "So you're planning to crash the market?"
Pratap took a moment to clarify his strategy and spoke out.
