Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday was asked about bribery allegations against businessman Gautam Adani and if anything was discussed with US President Donald Trump during his meeting with him.

The Economic Times reported that Modi responded,  “India is a democracy and our culture is 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam', we consider the whole world as one family. I believe every Indian is mine. Two prominent leaders of two countries never discuss such individual issues.”

Adani bribery charges

Under former President Joe Biden, the US Department of Justice had charged Adani for allegedly being part of a scheme to pay over $250 million (about ₹2,100 crore) bribe to officials in exchange of favourable terms for solar power contracts.
