New Delhi- Congress party is all set to attack PM Modi and BJP government on Adani issue again. Launching a book related to 100 questions “ (“Hum Adani ke hain Kaun”) asked by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, AICC General Secretary Incharge Jairam Ramesh said “we have demanded the JPC probe on Adani issue earlier also and when the Monsoon session will start in the New parliament building we will demand the same thing again and that is JPC probe.” Congress party, since Feburary has been asking Prime Minister Narendra Modi about his alleged involvement with businessman Gautam Adani.
Addressing the mediapersons in New Delhi, senior congress leader Jairam Ramesh said that conclusions drawn in the Supreme Court appointed expert committee report to look into the Adani- Hidenburg row were predictable. Jairam Ramesh has also tweeted that the Expert Committee has extremely limited terms of reference and will simply be unable to unravel Modani Scam. The answer is clearly a Joint Parliamentary Committee to examine all relevant aspects of this scam, as both INC and BJP led government have in the past agreed on to investigate major cases of stock market manipulation. So we are demanding JPC probe now and BJP should not be afraid of it, Jairam added.
In the ongoing investigations in the Adani Group, market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India SEBI has proposed more stringent disclosure requirements regarding the ownership structures of Foreign investors in Indian Companies. SEBI is into investigating the Adani Group companies in the wake of allegations raised by Hidenburg research of engaging in accounting fraud and stock manipulations.
