    What's the story

    The Enforcement Directorate on Monday conducted a series of raids across Ranchi, Jharkhand.

    The raids led to the recovery of around ₹25 crore in unaccounted cash from the household help of Sanjiv Lal—the personal secretary of Jharkhand minister Alamgir Alam.

    The raids were carried out under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act—targeting locations linked to Virendra Ram—former chief engineer at the Jharkhand Rural Development Department.

    Ram was taken into custody by the ED in February 2023 over money laundering allegations.

    Per reports, the ED is conducting simultaneous raids at nine different locations, including Sail City in Ranchi.

    These raids are part of an ongoing investigation into a money laundering case related to alleged irregularities in implementation of certain schemes within the Jharkhand Rural Development Department.
