On Tuesday, a delegation of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MPs met with officials from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), requesting an inquiry into alleged stock market manipulation following the exit polls earlier this month. The delegation consisted of TMC MPs Kalyan Banerjee, Sagarika Ghose, and Saket Gokhale. They were accompanied by Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Arvind Sawant and Vidya Chavan, a former MLC for the NCP (SP), reported PTI.
According to the report, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi earlier claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah were "directly involved" in what he called the "biggest stock market scam," stating that ordinary investors lost Rs 30 lakh crore due to a market crash following the Lok Sabha election results. The BJP denounced the claims as "baseless."
