I have never met Adani, says MK Stalin raising pitch for JPC probe

Deccan Chronicle  

Chennai: Chief Minister M K Stalin denied having ever met Gautam Adani, the Indian industrialist who is facing the music in an US court over bribery charges, and challenged the PMK and the BJP to support the appointment of a joint Parliamentary Committee to probe the Adani controversy. Replying to PMK leader G K Mani, who raised a question in the State Assembly on Tuesday with regard to the alleged meeting of the Chief Minister with the Gujarti industrialist, Stalin accused the PMK and BJP of spreading misinformation and launching a smear campaign though State Electricity Minister V Senthil Balaji had already explained it fully. Refuting the charge of the BJP and PMK, whose leaders had also taken to social media to made the allegation that Stalin had links with the Adani group of companies, Stalin asked Mani if and his party were ready to support the JPC probe that the Congress and other opposition parties in Parliament had been demanding. He said that he wanted to know from those who had been trying to tarnish the image of the State government by spreading false information through rumours on the Adani Group’s investments in the State if they were prepared to discuss the matter in Parliament and also support the setting up of the JPC inquiry demanded by the INDIA block.
