US complaint says Adani met and promised Rs 1750 crore bribe to Jagan Mohan Reddy; YSRCP calls it 'incorrect'
New Indian Express‘Bribe prompted AP Discoms to purchase power from SECI’ "In August 2021, Gautam Adani met the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh about the fact that Andhra Pradesh had not entered into a Power Supply Agreement with SECI and the “incentives” needed to cause Andhra Pradesh to do so. At or in connection with that meeting, Gautam Adani paid or promised a bribe to Andhra Pradesh government officials to cause the relevant Andhra Pradesh government entities to enter into Power Supply Agreements with SECI for the purchase of 7,000 MW of power capacity," USSEC alleged in its complaint and demanded jury trial against defendants Gautam Adani and Sagar Adani. “Shortly after Gautam Adani’s meeting with Andhra Pradesh’s Chief Minister, and the payment or promise to pay bribes, communications internal to Adani Green and Azure reflected that Andhra Pradesh had agreed to buy power from SECI. Around the same time, Andhra Pradesh agreed in principle to execute a Power Supply Agreement with SECI that would directly benefit Adani Green and Azure.
