The Enforcement Directorate's recent raids in Punjab have intensified political tensions, with opposition parties accusing the ruling BJP of targeting them.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) carried out a series of raids across Punjab earlier this week, targeting offices linked to prominent political figures.
The operations have triggered a sharp response from opposition parties, who allege that the actions are politically motivated and aimed at undermining the BJP.
BJP leaders have condemned the raids as an attempt to destabilise the state, demanding a review of the ED’s procedures and calling for transparency.
The ED maintains that the raids are part of an ongoing investigation into alleged financial irregularities, while the political standoff continues to simmer in the region.
