Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of shielding Gautam Adani, following US charges of a ₹2,029 crore bribery scam involving Adani and his nephew. Gandhi claimed the case validates his allegations of Adani's law violations in India and abroad. Addressing a press conference, he demanded Adani's immediate arrest, asserting, “PM Modi is protecting Adani and complicit in corruption.” He vowed to raise the issue in Parliament’s Winter Session, reiterating calls for a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe. Adani Group stocks saw a sharp decline, falling 9%-19%, reflecting growing concerns over the scandal.
