The joint opposition in the Indian Parliament demands the formation of a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) to investigate the Adani group's indictment in the US, which has raised concerns about corruption and tarnished the country's image. The matter was raised in both houses of Parliament, but the proceedings were adjourned without any business. The leader of the opposition in the Rajya Sabha, Mallikarjun Kharge, questioned the refusal to allow the notice and alleged that Prime Minister Modi's diplomatic visits have resulted in infrastructure contracts for Adani's business house in multiple countries. The House was adjourned till Wednesday, and the demand for a JPC is expected to lead to a prolonged confrontation in the Parliament.
