Six U.S. Congressmen have urged Attorney General Merrick Garland to reconsider the indictment of Adani Group executives, criticizing the Department of Justice's (DOJ) decision. In a letter, they wrote, “Instead of deferring the case to the appropriate Indian authorities, the Biden DOJ decided to push forward and indict [Adani Group]’s executives without any real injury to U.S. interests being present.” The DOJ has charged Adani executives with financial misconduct, but the Congressmen argue that India's legal system should handle the matter. The case has sparked diplomatic concerns, with India closely monitoring developments. The DOJ has not responded to the letter.
