Opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, staged a protest inside the Parliament complex, demanding a joint parliamentary probe into the Adani issue. The protesters raised slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Adani, calling for a discussion and investigation into the allegations. The protest was attended by MPs from various opposition parties, including the Left, DMK, Shiv Sena (UBT), RJD, and NCP.

The Adani issue has been a point of contention in the Indian Parliament, with the opposition demanding a JPC probe following the indictment of Adani and other company officials in a US court. The Congress has said that Adani’s indictment “vindicates” its demand for a JPC probe into the various “scams” involving the billionaire industrialist’s conglomerate. Rahul Gandhi has sought Adani’s immediate arrest.

The protest took place in front of the Samvidhan Sadan, with the protesting MPs lining up and raising slogans against the government. The BJP has been alleging that the INDIA bloc is disintegrating, but Samajwadi Party leader Ram Gopal Yadav said “all is well” in the opposition bloc.
