The Enforcement Directorate (ED) launched a series of raids across Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Gurugram, and Delhi on Monday, targeting alleged land fraud involving AAP's Rajya Sabha member Sanjeev Arora and others, official sources confirmed.
Searches were conducted at 16-17 locations, including the residence of the 61-year-old MP in Ludhiana and Gurugram. Further raids targeted premises linked to real estate businessman Hemant Sood and Chandra Shekhar Agrawal in Jalandhar.
The operation, under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), investigates claims that Arora illicitly transferred an industrial plot into his company's name. AAP leader Manish Sisodia criticized the raids as attempts to undermine the party's morale.
