NEW DELHI, Nov 29 (Reuters) - The lower house of India's
parliament was suspended temporarily on Friday for a fourth day
in a row this week following disruptions as opposition lawmakers
sought a discussion on the allegations against Adani Group. 
    U.S. authorities last week accused Group Chairman Gautam
Adani and seven others from the company of being part of a $265
million scheme to bribe Indian officials, and of misleading U.S.
investors while raising funds there. 
    The ports-to-power conglomerate has termed the allegations
"baseless" and said it would seek "all possible legal recourse".
