Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday, while referring to the Adani bribery case, said that the government does not work on the media reports. Speaking at Agenda Aaj Tak, his first media interactions after Lok Sabha polls, Amit Shah said that the government will act once “we have documents.”

The remarks came as the Opposition pressed for a discussion on the US Department of Justice’s indictment of Gautam Adani.

On the Adani US bribery case, Amit Shah said, “Government doesn’t work on media reports. We will see once we have documents.”

The indictment against Gautam Adani in the US alleged that he engaged in bribery to secure solar energy contracts in India and misled American investors through fraudulent financial disclosures.

According to the rules, US authorities are required to notify the Ministry of Home Affairs before taking any legal action within India, including executing an arrest warrant. The ministry can then direct central probe agencies to act on such requests.

If the US seeks Adani’s extradition, authorities are expected to invoke the India-US extradition treaty. The treaty requires the US to present evidence showing how the alleged actions violated American law and their jurisdictional impact.
