Both the Houses of Parliament were adjourned till 2 pm on Thursday amid direptions over the war of words on the Hindenburg report against Adani Enterprises while seeking a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe into the matter. The like-minded Opposition parties held a meeting before the commencement of the day’s Session of the Parliament to discuss strategy for the day. Several Opposition MPs have given suspension of Business notices to the respective Houses of Parliament on the issue.
“Adani’s mountain of lies and fraud is crumbling like a pack of cards. Crores of investors in the country are worried. Those who have invested in LIC, SBI because both of them have given loans worth crores of rupees,” Aam Admi Party MP Sanjay Singh said.
“I have written to PM Modi, CBI and ED to confiscate Adani’s passport, otherwise if he flees the country like other businessmen, what would the crores of people do?” he added further.
Congress MP Manoj Tewari demanded a probe by a Joint Parliamentary Committee.
“We demand an investigation by the Joint Parliamentary Committee on the issue. We will raise the demand inside the Parliament. If the government doesn’t accept our demand, we will take appropriate steps. We’ll demand that a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) should be constituted to go into the alleged aberrations. The question is not only about one promoter but about the efficacy of the entire regulatory system,” Tewari said.
Earlier, Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi appealed to the Opposition to run the House smoothly.
