‘Chasing rumours abroad risks critical alliances with key partners’: US Congressman slams Biden govt’s decision to investigate Adani

Op India  

A US Congressman has strongly opposed the outgoing Biden administration’s decision to investigate Indian business conglomerate Gautam Adani, stating that ‘selective prosecution’ over rumours abroad risks critical alliances with America’s key partners. Republican Congressman Lance Gooden penned a sharply worded letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, criticizing the indictment of industrialist Gautam Adani and labelling it a “selective action” that could jeopardize Washington’s vital partnership with India. “The Department of Justice’s selective actions threaten to harm critical alliances with key partners like India, one of America’s strongest allies in the Asia-Pacific region,” Gooden, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, said in his January 7 letter, according to news agency PTI. On November 20, 2024, U.S. prosecutors charged Gautam Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani, and several executives from the Adani Group with orchestrating a $250 million bribery scheme to secure solar power project contracts in India.
