The Congress alleged that the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) was “reluctant” to investigate the allegations against the Adani Group, and reiterated its stance that only a probe by a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPB) to bring out the truth would suffice.
Citing a news report, Congress general secretary (communication) Jairam Ramesh said that the “stench of illegality” around another Adani-linked shell company, Opal Investment, was getting stronger.
Mr. Ramesh claimed that “fresh revelations” show to the firm, which controls ₹8,000 crore worth of equity in Adani Power, was set up as a “single person company” in Dubai in May 2019.
