🚨 OCCRP rehashes debunked 2023 claims — pure recycled propaganda This is NOT new. It’s the same old Hindenburg 2.0 narrative about two long-time legitimate global investors (UAE’s Nasser Ali Shaban Ahli & Taiwan’s Chang Chung-Ling), who were business associates of Adani Group with past director roles in affiliated entities. They invested ~$3 billion in listed Adani stocks through fully regulated hedge funds in 2023. 📌 Important context on regulatory findings, disclosures, and funding sources Indian law does not require listed companies to track/disclose sources of funds for public shareholders beyond mandatory rules; listed firms have no control over independent trades or visibility into such investments. Adani spokesperson: "Any suggestion that promoter shareholding has been misstated or concealed is incorrect." (From OCCRP article itself) SEBI investigated core Hindenburg allegations (incl. related-party/manipulation claims involving similar entities/transactions). In Sept 2025 final orders on two flagged sets: allegations "not established," no violations found (transactions not related-party under then-applicable rules; no manipulation). Stocks rose post-orders. - SEBI order (Adicorp): sebi.gov.in/sebi_data/attach… - SEBI order (Milestone/Rehvar): sebi.gov.in/sebi_data/attach… - Reuters (Sep 19, 2025): SEBI dismissed manipulation claims, no breaches; stocks climbed. reuters.com/sustainability/b… Supreme Court (Jan 2024) upheld SEBI's probe, noting confidence in process; rejected transfer requests. Swiss probe into Chang (money laundering/forgery suspicions, assets frozen ~$311M) ongoing since 2021; no charges as of report (Aug 2024 court ruling rejected unfreeze appeal). Adani denies involvement. US cases (2024 indictment/SEC complaint on bribery) ongoing; Adani calls baseless. OCCRP receives significant funding from US government (USAID/State Dept, historically ~50% of budget pre-2025) and Open Society Foundations (George Soros). Critics, including India's ruling BJP, accuse it of pushing anti-India narratives targeting PM Modi and Adani Group (e.g., via reports amplified by opposition). OCCRP states donors have no editorial control. - Mediapart (Dec 2024): mediapart.fr/en/journal/inte… - OCCRP funding: occrp.org/en/about-us/annual… - Reuters/The Hindu (Dec 2024): thehindu.com/news/national/u… Report recycles prior elements (e.g., ties from dismissed 2007/2014 DRI cases). Adani maintains full compliance; investments by public shareholders via regulated funds. Adds regulatory outcomes, legal status, Indian disclosure rules, and funding context for balanced view.

S Jaishankar: Middle Powers Will Shape the New World Order 🔥 Speaking at the Munich Leaders Meeting in New Delhi, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar explained how intensifying US–China competition is creating greater strategic space for countries such as India. > US described as deliberately becoming a “lonelier power” > China now accounts for roughly one-third of global manufacturing > Economic and strategic leverage is increasingly being weaponised > Middle powers are pursuing self-reliance, diversification and de-risking > Flexible groupings such as the Quad allow issue-based cooperation > India seeks deeper partnerships in technology, defence, trade and connectivity > Strong growth and favourable demography could accelerate India’s global rise India’s objective is not to become a subordinate member of any power bloc. It is to work with competing centres of power, protect its strategic autonomy and help build a multipolar order in which middle powers no longer merely follow decisions... they shape them. 📌 Follow @_TheTathya for more such updates.
