Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has sharply criticized the Election Commission and Delhi Police, accusing them of conducting a 'raid' at his residence, Kapurthala House, to tarnish the image of Punjabis.

Mann, in a social media post, claimed that the Election Commission is turning a blind eye to BJP's allegedly open distribution of money in the lead-up to the Delhi elections, opting instead to target him.

An election official confirmed that a team was dispatched to Mann's residence for search operations based on a complaint about money distribution but was denied entry.
