Wani said Modi Govt after failing to respond to Rahul Gandhi’s questions over relations with Adani Group of companies adopted policy of intimidation of opposition even inside the Lok Sabha, so that questions over Adani issue were not raised by the opposition especially Congress Party, but it could not terrorise Congress. He said Congress will continue to raise the issue.
