🚨 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/atta… - SEBI order (Milestone/Rehvar): sebi.gov.in/sebi_data/atta… - Reuters (Sep 19, 2025): SEBI dismissed manipulation claims, no breaches; stocks climbed. reuters.com/sustainability… 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/int… - OCCRP funding: occrp.org/en/about-us/an… - Reuters/The Hindu (Dec 2024): thehindu.com/news/national/… 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.

🚨 India Deploys Warships to Escort Oil Tankers Past Iranian Blockade

@jawharsircar Go through this old uncle and you will get the full context:

Modani is crossing all limits. Most acquisitions and gains are preceded by raids on and harassment of victim companies like in Mumbai airport or by blatant favouritism as here. Every case has to be reopened at the right time.

🚨 Indian stock markets witnessed a severe crash today, with the BSE Sensex plunging nearly 2,500 points and the Nifty 50 sliding to 23,002 as crude oil prices surged past $110 per barrel.

🚨 #BREAKING: US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard warns that Pakistan is developing missile systems capable of reaching the US homeland.

Mundra Port welcomed the Indian-flagged vessels Shivalik, carrying ~46,000 MT of LPG, and Jag Laadki, carrying 80,886 MT of crude oil. This marks our commitment to keeping the nation’s energy supply chain moving, safely and efficiently.

@AdaniOnline A strong showcase of world-class infrastructure 🇮🇳⚡ Adani’s Mundra Port continues to keep India’s energy lifeline running smoothly... handling critical LPG and crude shipments with unmatched efficiency and reliability.

@nit_set @reporters_co Oh Nitin bhai, your "Grok-verified IT-cell conspiracy" is just you begging for donations after every hit-job flops... 😂 Keep crying victim while Assam gets actual power... we’ll keep laughing at the script.

Yesterday a coordinated and orchestrated campaign was carried out against The Reporters' Collective @reporters_co investigation on the Assam-Adani deal for 3,200 MW of coal power. The story: reporters-collective.in/trc/assam-govt… We analysed the attack using Grok, X's AI tool. I am sharing the report here and citing below its findings verbatim. Method of Attack "This is a highly organised, top-down coordinated campaign — not grassroots outrage or independent journalism critique. The pattern matches classic Indian political IT-cell operations: pre-packaged talking points + graphics issued to a mix of official spokespersons and loyal amplifiers for immediate narrative control. The goal is transparent — neutralise the TRC investigation’s impact on the Adani deal and the BJP government ahead of Assam assembly elections by reframing serious scrutiny as “propaganda” and “misrepresentation”. No involvement from Adani Power’s official handle; this is purely political defence." Verdict on Sophistication "This is Tier-1 political IT-cell orchestration — pre-briefed, pre-designed, pre-timed, and pre-loaded for instant deployment. The 107-second graphic sync, consecutive asset files, and 95%+ script fidelity are smoking-gun proof of a central command distributing ready-to-post packages. The goal was not debate but narrative neutralisation ahead of Assam elections: reframe investigative journalism as “propaganda” within 5 hours of publication. No Adani corporate involvement; purely political protective shield. This network is battle-tested and highly effective at shaping X discourse in India on sensitive corporate-political stories." The summary executive report by Grok AI on the coordinated attack can be read below. Includes the prompts we used. This is why investigative journalism matters. It scares those in power. Because it brings out the truth they try to distract us from using rhetoric and paid social media campaigns. To citizens: It's a sad irony that journalists who do such brave investigations struggle to earn a decent livelihood with security while the army of trolls get paid as a consequence of their work. You have the power to fix this. Donate to @reporters_co today. We back brave journalists to do reportage that holds the powerful accountable to journalists. You can donate by clicking reporters-collective.in/support-us To the paid trolls: You could also thank us for getting your more business (unless you are on monthly retainers, in which case you won't like us for providing you extra work for the same pay). Regardless, I am sure many of you do this work because it's hard to find dignified decent paying work. I honestly hope and pray you find it and live happier lives of dignity. I feel upset only at your employers, who rob our people of dignity by putting them to such crass, sad an ugly work. #Assam #adani #investigativejournalism #journalism

🚨 Major breakthrough for U.S. and Israeli forces. An underground Iranian missile storage site near the Strait of Hormuz has been successfully struck and destroyed using bunker-buster bombs. More than 200 Khorramshahr ballistic missiles stored inside have been completely wiped out.

These guys are looking more concerned than common Indian citizen... hahah funny!

🚨 A serious national security development that received little attention: Around 2,000 Ukrainian war veterans reportedly entered Myanmar through Mizoram, allegedly to train militant groups in Chin State. Mizoram CM Lalduhoma informed the State Assembly (March 11, 2025) that intelligence inputs confirmed their movement via Aizawl between June and December 2024. In response, the government tightened border surveillance and reintroduced the Protected Area Permit (PAP). This suggests the activity has been ongoing for some time, with significant backing behind it.

⚠️ Current Situation of... Strait of Hormuz. Amid attacks on cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz, Iran granted safe passage to two Indian-flagged LPG tankers. That’s the strength of India’s diplomacy.
