CBI Raids Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann's Office Amid Corruption Probe Ordered by High Court
The CBI conducted raids at Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's camp office and his Officer on Special Duty Rajbir Singh Ghuman's residence in Chandigarh following a High Court order to investigate corruption allegations linked to the Chief Minister's Office. Mann accused the BJP of misusing central agencies like the CBI and ED to target his government ahead of Punjab elections. The Enforcement Directorate's allegations remain under investigation, and the Punjab government has challenged the probe order in the Supreme Court.
