Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi continued to deflect opposition pressure over his said links with billionaire Gautam Adani who’s battling allegations of fraud and market manipulation from a US short seller.

Modi spoke in the upper house of parliament, his second speech in the legislature in as many days, amid chants of “Modi-Adani are brothers” from the opposition benches Thursday. Modi ignored the heckling, as he had done a day earlier, and continued to take potshots at the Congress party.
