ED raids Punjab Minister Sanjeev Arora’s premises in money laundering case; AAP says vendetta
NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids on the premises of Punjab Cabinet Minister Sanjeev Arora on Friday morning in Ludhiana, triggering a fresh political controversy.
According to officials and sources, ED teams reached the minister’s residence early in the day, while Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) personnel were deployed outside the premises to secure the area. Searches were also carried out at other locations linked to the minister.
The action is reportedly connected to an old money laundering case and alleged irregularities in land deals.
AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj reacted to the development, alleging that the BJP follows this pattern to start its preparation for a state election.
In a post on X, he said, “ED has now raided Punjab Minister Sanjiv Arora. This is a clear pattern. This is how BJP starts its preparation for a state election.”
Separately, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Media In-Charge Anurag Dhanda also reacted to the ED's action, saying the Central government have openly declared a dictatorship.
