The Parliament has witnessed uproarious scenes calling for probe into Adani issue. The irregularities in his shell companies merits investigation. His closeness to powers that be raises legitimate suspicion as he has won contracts after accompanying the Prime Minister. The crash of shares after Hindenburg expose is real. The subscription of SBI and LIC has lead to erosion of public wealth however marginal loss not withstanding. SEBI, the market regulator has been silent for 3 years not responding to inquiries. The crash of the stocks merits investigation. Deflecting that Adani is creation of Congress does not explain his ranking as third richest man only during 8 years of BJP rule. How he has managed to corner contracts in unrelated business without expertise surely raises eyebrows. Expunging of Parliamentary remarks will not diminish intensity of debate outside.
The fall of Adani empire from the high pedestal is food for thought. It is national security that is at stake and so is national wealth and world perception about business of unethical practices.
