India's rise eyesore for many: BJP on oppn attack on govt over Adani issue
India's rise as a strong nation has become an eyesore for many people, the BJP said on Thursday, amid opposition parties such as the Congress targeting the Modi government over fresh allegations against the Adani Group.
The Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) trained its guns on billionaire Gautam Adani's group, alleging that hundreds of millions of dollars were invested in publicly traded group stocks through Mauritius-based 'opaque' investment funds managed by partners of promoter family.
Latching on to the claims, the Congress targeted the government and said "corruption" in shell companies linked to the conglomerate is getting stronger and only a joint parliamentary committee probe can uncover the truth.

Food inflation still a concern; uncertainty due to shortfall of monsoon: Nestle India CMD Suresh Narayanan
Food inflation is still a cause of concern despite measures taken by the government to check overall price rise and the movement of commodity prices needs to be closely watched for a long-term impact, Nestle India Chairman & Managing Director Suresh Narayanan said on Thursday.
Going by publicly available information, now it is reasonably clear that with a 30 per cent deficit in the monsoon, Kharif crops might get impacted, even if the sowing is good, said Narayanan in a media roundtable here.
With this El Nino impact not fully played out, we still have to watch for the spectre of food inflation, he said.
Too many civil bodies in Manipur; they need to talk in single voice: CM Biren Singh
Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh on Thursday lamented that there are too many civil society organisations in the state and they speak in different voices, making it difficult to find a solution to the ethnic problem rocking Manipur for nearly four months.
He urged those bodies to present a concrete proposal to solve the crisis in one voice, so it can be conveyed to the Centre by the state government.
There are too many organisations. We are at a very crucial stage now. Both the central and the state governments are confused about whom to talk to. We will go with the public (opinion) and never work against the interests of the people, Singh said at a programme.
