In a significant development, the EOW has launched a series of raids in Chhattisgarh, focusing on the alleged liquor scam. The operation, which took place on Sunday, involved searches at the residences of prominent liquor traders. The raids were carried out in Raipur, Bilaspur, and Durg, with a total of 10 locations across the state being targeted.
The investigation stems from allegations of widespread irregularities during the Congress government’s tenure, including the use of duplicate holograms on liquor bottles to evade taxes. The EOW team is currently scrutinizing documents and gathering evidence related to the scam.
