Reacting to Nationalist Congress Party president Sharad Pawar's remarks on Adani issue, Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole on Saturday said his party was firm on its demand of a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) probe into the allegations against the Adani group.

“From where did the Rs 20,000 crore via shell companies come into the Adani group? Who does the money belong to? The people of the country have the right to know this. Rahul Gandhi has made this demand and various political parties in the country including the Congress have demanded that the Adani scam should be investigated by a joint parliamentary committee. Irrespective of NCP President Sharad Pawar's opinion, there must be a JPC inquiry to find out the truth about the scam,” Patole said.
