अदाणी समूह ने OCCRP के सभी आरोपों को खारिज किया, कहा - फिर मुनाफ़ा कमाने की हो रही कोशिश

अदाणी समूह ने ऑर्गेनाइडज़्ड क्राइम एंड करप्शन रिपर्टिंग प्रोजेक्ट (OCCRP) द्वारा लगाए गए छिपे विदेशी निवेशकों के 'दोबारा थोपे गए' आरोपों को स्पष्ट रूप से खारिज किया है. समूह ने एक बयान जारी कर कहा, "ये समाचार रिपोर्टें हिंडनबर्ग की नाकारा रिपोर्ट को दोबारा हवा देने के लिए विदेशी मीडिया के एक वर्ग के समर्थन से जॉर्ज सोरोस-फंडेड OCCRP की एक और कोशिश प्रतीत होती है... दरअसल, यही उम्मीद थी, जब पिछले हफ़्ते मीडिया ने यही आशंका जताई थी..."

अदाणी समूह ने कहा कि एक स्वतंत्र निर्णायक प्राधिकारी और एक अपीलीय न्यायाधिकरण - दोनों ने पुष्टि की है कि मूल्यांकन को बढ़ा-चढ़ाकर नहीं दिखाया गया और लेनदेन लागू कानूनों के अनुसार किए गए थे.

बयान में आगे कहा गया, "चल रही नियामक प्रक्रिया का सम्मान करना अहम है... हमें कानून की उचित प्रक्रिया पर पूरा भरोसा है और हम अपने खुलासों की गुणवत्ता और कॉरपोरेट प्रशासन मानकों के प्रति आश्वस्त हैं... इन तथ्यों के प्रकाश में इन समाचार रिपोर्टों का समय संदिग्ध, शरारतपूर्ण और दुर्भावनापूर्ण है, और हम इन रिपोर्टों को पूरी तरह खारिज करते हैं..."

सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने अदाणी समूह के पक्ष में फैसला सुनाया था और मामला मार्च, 2023 में बंद कर दिया गया था. समूह के मुताबिक, "स्पष्ट रूप से चूंकि कोई अधिक मूल्यांकन नहीं पाया गया था, इसलिए धन के लेनदेन को लेकर लगे इन आरोपों की कोई प्रासंगिकता या आधार नहीं है..."

समूह ने कहा, OCCRP द्वारा किए गए ये दावे "एक दशक पहले के बंद मामलों पर आधारित हैं, जब राजस्व खुफिया निदेशालय ने अधिक चालान, विदेश में धन के हस्तांतरण, संबंधित पार्टी लेनदेन और FPI के माध्यम से निवेश के आरोपों की जांच की थी..."

अदाणी समूह ने यह भी साफ़ किया कि जिन FPI का नाम लिया गया, वे पहले से भारतीय प्रतिभूति और विनिमय बोर्ड (SEBI) की जांच का हिस्सा हैं.

समूह ने बताया, सुप्रीम कोर्ट द्वारा नियुक्त विशेषज्ञ समिति के अनुसार न्यूनतम सार्वजनिक शेयरधारिता आवश्यकताओं के उल्लंघन या स्टॉक की कीमतों में हेरफेर का कोई सबूत नहीं मिला है.

समूह के अनुसार, "दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण है कि हमें सवाल भेजने वाले प्रकाशनों ने हमारी प्रतिक्रिया को पूरा प्रकाशित नहीं किया... सभी बातों के अलावा, इन प्रयासों का उद्देश्य हमारे शेयरों की कीमतों को नीचे लाकर मुनाफा कमाना है और शॉर्ट सेलरों की विभिन्न अधिकारियों द्वारा जांच की जा रही है..."

OCCRP के आरोपों को अदाणी ग्रुप ने बताया गलत - खास बातें

• OCCRP ने दो विदेशी निवेशकों के ज़रिये इनसाइडर ट्रेडिंग का लगाया है आरोप
• ये आरोप पुराने हैं और रिसाइकिल किए गए हैं : अदाणी
• न्यायिक जांच में कुछ गलत नहीं मिला : अदाणी
• इन विदेशी निवेशकों की जांच SEBI पहले ही कर रहा है : अदाणी
• SC कमेटी की जांच में शेयर होल्डिंग नियमों का उल्लंघन नहीं मिला : अदाणी
• SC, SEBI की जांच की कद्र करनी चाहिए : अदाणी
• ये रिपोर्ट एक बार फिर से पैसा बनाने की कोशिश : अदाणी
• इन शॉर्ट सेलरों की कई एजेंसियां कर रहीं जांच : अदाणी
• अफसोस है, मीडिया रिपोर्ट्स में हमारा बयान शामिल नहीं किया गया : अदाणी

Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury's Suspension From Lok Sabha Revoked

Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury's suspension from Lok Sabha was revoked on Wednesday, hours after a parliamentary panel made a recommendation to the effect.

"The suspension of Shri Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, MP from the service of the House which was effected on 10.8.2023 till the submission of the Report by the Committee of Privileges, has been revoked with effect from 30.8.2023," a notification by the Lok Sabha Secretariat said.

Earlier in the day, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury appeared before the Privileges Committee of Lok Sabha and expressed regret over his conduct in the House following which the panel unanimously adopted a resolution to revoke his suspension. The report of the committee was immediately communicated to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.

Appearing before the committee, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury also expressed regret over certain remarks made by him in the House which had led to his suspension from the Lok Sabha on the penultimate day of the monsoon session of Parliament on August 10.

Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury is learnt to have told the committee, chaired by BJP member Sunil Kumar Singh, that it was never his intention to hurt anybody's feelings and expressed regret for certain remarks made by him.

"The committee has adopted a resolution to revoke the suspension of Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury from the Lok Sabha. The resolution will be sent to the Speaker as soon as possible," a committee member said.

Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury was named by Om Birla for "unruly conduct" on August 10 and was suspended from the membership of Lok Sabha pending a report from the Privileges Committee.

At the meeting of the committee on August 18, several members were of the view that Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has been punished for his conduct by Lok Sabha and there was no further need to examine his behaviour by a parliamentary panel.

However, as a process of natural justice, the committee had asked Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury to appear before it on Wednesday.

Interfaith Couples Blackmailed, Videos Shared Online, 3 Arrested In Gujarat

Three persons were arrested in Vadodara in Gujarat for allegedly targeting interfaith couples, harassing them and uploading their videos on social media in order to cause enmity among religious groups, a police official said on Monday.

The matter came to light when the video of one such couple went viral on social media platform X and a probe found that a gang that actively targeted such couples and shared videos on a WhatsApp group called 'Army of Mahdi' was behind it, Zone 2 Deputy Commissioner of Police Abhay Soni said.

Three administrators of the WhatsApp group, identified as Mustakim Sheikh, Burhan Saiyad and Sahil Sheikh, were arrested under Indian Penal Code (IPC) provisions for promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, etc., making statements conducing to public mischief, and disappearance of evidence, the DCP said.

The content they shared could have led to mob lynching and communal clashes, he said, adding that the WhatsApp group in question had a network of members who operated across the city and kept a watch on such interfaith couples.

"As per their modus operandi, they'd keep a WhatsApp group active for three-four months and then delete it before starting a new group with several people being its members. They also used the video to blackmail the family members of the woman," the senior police official said.

The arrested accused said they would first target a woman when she was seen with a man from a different faith and record their video that was then used to blackmail them, he informed.

"We have seized their mobile phones and sent them to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL). We will try to recover the audio and videos. We will question all the members of the group," he said.

The DCP asked those who have been harassed by the group to come forward and record their statements, adding that the police would keep their identities secret.

"We are trying to find out the motive behind such an act and see whether they were backed by a group operating on a bigger level or whether they were self inspired. From where they got the inspiration to run such a group is being investigated," he said.

The DCP said the accused specifically targeted women from their own religion as a form of moral policing and a probe is underway to find if they extorted money on the basis of such videos.

The office of Goa minister Mauvin Godinho on Sunday lodged a police complaint over a "derogatory" and "false" message being circulated along with photographs on social media linking his name to a woman deputy sarpanch of a village in the state, an official said.

The minister's personal secretary Nehal Damodar Keni lodged the complaint at Vasco police station, he said.

The complaint said that a derogatory and false message was being widely circulated on social media platforms from Saturday along with the photographs of Godinho with a woman deputy sarpanch of a village in Dabolim constituency.

Godinho, who belongs to the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), represents the Dabolim assembly segment. He handles Transport and Panchayat ministries.

The complaint further said, "The message is being circulated along with publicly available photographs of Godinho, thereby creating a wrong and erroneous impression to the readers about the attribution of the said message and photographs to Godinho." Keni said in the complaint that based on the message and the photographs, some unidentified persons have also created video.

"Certain politicians have also attempted to capitalise on this grossly wrong and erroneous impression created by the message to create unrest and derive political mileage out of this patently illegal and mischievous message," the complaint said.

When contacted, a senior police official said, "We have received the complaint and it is being investigated."

Chandrayaan-3, Anti-Ragging Among Kolkata Durga Puja Themes This Year

As the whole country continues to celebrate Chandrayaan-3's success, a Durga puja committee in Kolkata has decided to design its pandal modelled on lander Vikram which touched down on the lunar south pole on August 23.

Another Puja committee will theme its pandal on the evils of ragging with the message of zero tolerance to such bullying.

Pallir Jubak Brinda Club at Sitaram Ghosh Street in north Kolkata has started work on a jumbo-size Vikram replica which will serve as its pandal.

"Come Pujas and visitors will see Maa Durga sitting in the lander model which will be perched on the ground resembling the lunar surface," a puja committee spokesperson said on Sunday.

He said the organisers will get the puja inaugurated by the father of an ISRO scientist associated with the moon mission.

India scripted history on August 23 when ISRO's ambitious third moon mission Chandrayaan-3's lander module touched down on the lunar surface making it only the fourth country to accomplish the feat and first to reach the uncharted south pole of earth's only natural satellite.

This will be our tribute to ISRO, he said.

In south Kolkata, Naktala Udayan Sangha will theme its pandal on the evils of ragging and how the menace can be eliminated from society.

"We have all been shaken by the death of a Jadavpur University student allegedly due to ragging and physical abuse by seniors. Our puja will highlight the message to prevent any kind of ragging and bullying in educational institutions," Puja committee member Anjan Samaddar said.

A 17-year-old Nadia resident, an under-graduate student of arts in Jadavpur University, died on August 10 after falling off the second-floor balcony of the boys' hostel.  

The student was subjected to intense ragging and alleged physical abuse by his seniors at the hostel a day before his death.
