Congress and other opposition parties accuse the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi of protecting billionaire Gautam Adani.

India's parliament was disrupted for a third day on Thursday by opposition parties protesting the government's silence over allegations against billionaire Gautam Adani, who was recently indicted in the United States for alleged fraud and a scheme to pay bribes.

Indian opposition parties demanded a probe on Thursday into allegations of wrongdoing by the Adani Group and said they would raise the issue in parliament.
