Protests over the Adani bribery case intensified in the Parliament complex as Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi accused PM Narendra Modi of shielding Gautam Adani. Opposition MPs wore jackets reading "Modi-Adani Ek Hai" and demanded a joint parliamentary committee (JPC) probe. However, Trinamool Congress and Samajwadi Party MPs skipped the protest, citing focus on issues like price rise and unemployment. Trinamool MP Kirti Azad emphasized unity on Parliament strategy despite differing priorities. US prosecutors have accused Adani of bribing Indian officials for solar power contracts. The Adani Group has rejected the allegations as "baseless."
