On Thursday, Rahul Gandhi cited media reports to question the SEBI investigation into the Adani issue. He stated that prominent global financial newspapers have raised very important questions on the Adani matter.
Speaking at a press conference about the Adani issue, Rahul Gandhi stated that the Modi government should conduct a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe into the Adani matter.
He added, "There was SEBI probe but clean chit given to Adani; very clear something wrong here."
Rahul said, "Joint Parliamentary Committee should be allowed and a thorough investigation should take place in the Adani matter. Why is PM Modi silent, why doesn't he get this investigated, asks Rahul Gandhi on the Adani issue."
