On Wednesday, the ED team raided the places close to the Chief Minister. The houses of CM’s OSD Ashish Verma and Manish Banchore, businessman Vijay Bhatia and CM’s political advisor Vinod Verma have been raided, which the Congress has described as targeted. State Congress Communications Department President Sushil Anand Shukla says that Vinod Verma, along with Congress political trainings, also looks after the work of booth committees, so this raid has taken place to disturb him. Both Ashish Verma and Manish Banchore are OSD to the Chief Minister. The basic function of both is to conduct political activities in the Chief Minister’s constituency Patan. Vijay Bhatia is a family friend of the Chief Minister. BJP has declared its candidate in Patan. Now ED has reached here with the aim of obstructing the work of Congress in Patan. Congress’s allegations regarding ED’s raid
Why does ED take action whenever political activities intensify in the state or there is any political movement?
During the 85th session of Congress, ED was done at the places of Congress leaders, so that the session could be disrupted.
ED raids were also conducted during UP, Assam, Himachal and Karnataka elections.
Whenever Union Minister Amit Shah came to Chhattisgarh, before that ED action was taken three times. Is it just a coincidence or a conspiracy that ED came before Shah’s visit to Korba, Jagdalpur, Raipur?
The Congress alleged that the timing of the ED’s raids and its actions only shows that the BJP is working to fulfill its political objectives and is conspiring to create sensationalism and a false atmosphere against the government in the state.
The wrists of those living around the CM are being exposed – Ajay Chandrakar
Regarding the raid, former minister Ajay Chandrakar said that the wrists of the people sitting around the CM at the helm of power are being exposed. He alleged that extortionists and money launderers were running the government. Chandrakar said that the Congress blames the investigating agencies, then why does it not accuse the court? The CM gives an explanation in the assembly regarding the accused that nothing was found and if not found then why did they go to jail.
