ED Investigates Alleged Corruption Involving Punjab Officials and AAP LeadersNext

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is investigating alleged corruption involving intermediaries linked to Punjab's Chief Minister's Office and AAP leaders. The probe targets attempts to influence government transfers, policy decisions, and land approvals, focusing on individuals including Rajbir Singh Ghuman and Moga MLA Dr Amandeep Kaur Arora. ED conducted searches and summoned Arora for questioning related to fraudulent land acquisition and compensation. The investigation follows findings shared with Punjab police and a subsequent CBI inquiry ordered by the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
