Gautam Adani, India’s second-richest man and a close ally of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is once again in the global spotlight. While Adani’s meteoric rise in wealth and power began after Modi came to power in 2014, so did the controversies. From 2013 to 2022, the Adani Group’s market cap exploded from $7.8 billion to $262 billion. Yet, behind this growth lies a pattern of allegations — stock manipulation, bribery, tax evasion, and now, illegal dealings with sanctioned countries like Iran. In this episode of News That Matters, journalist Neeraj uncovers how the U.S. Department of Justice is investigating Adani for allegedly buying LPG from Iran using ships with falsified AIS data — a direct violation of international sanctions. Satellite images revealed the ship was near Iran while its system falsely showed it in Iraq. This is just one of several such suspicious shipments. Meanwhile, past accusations — from the Hindenburg report to OCCRP’s findings on inflated coal prices — paint a worrying picture of unchecked power and political protection. Despite multiple global investigations, Indian agencies remain silent. Why? Is the Indian media too compromised to question Adani? Has Adani grown too powerful to be held accountable in India? Watch this eye-opening investigation that asks: “Why does justice only happen abroad?”
