⚠️ Heads up: this article is from our "experimental era" — a beautiful mess of enthusiasm ✨, caffeine ☕, and user-submitted chaos 🤹. We kept it because it’s part of our journey 🛤️ (and hey, everyone has awkward teenage years 😅).
US prosecutors are broadening their investigation into India’s Adani Group to examine potential bribery and the actions of the company’s billionaire founder. The probe is focusing on whether an Adani entity or individuals associated with the company, including Gautam Adani, may have made payments to Indian officials to secure advantageous treatment for an energy project. Alongside Adani Group, the investigation is also looking into Indian renewable energy firm Azure Power Global Ltd. The inquiry is under the jurisdiction of the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York and the Justice Department’s fraud unit in Washington.
