The government has made it clear that it will not hesitate to annul contracts with Adani if any corruption or irregularities are proven, according to Muhammad Fauzul Kabir Khan, Adviser to the Ministry of Power, Energy, and Mineral Resources. Speaking at a press briefing after a meeting with the national committee reviewing agreements under the Rapid Energy Supply Expansion Law, he emphasized that verbal assurances alone will not suffice; proper evidence is required. Committee member Professor Moshtaq Hossain Khan noted that as these are sovereign agreements, cancellation cannot be done arbitrarily, and international courts may impose hefty fines if contracts are terminated. He also highlighted extensive corruption in the power sector, which has contributed to electricity prices being 25% higher than comparable countries. Economist Dr. Zahid Hossain pointed out that while power generation increased fourfold between 2011 and 2024, payments surged over eleven times, indicating the rise was not due to technical factors.
