โ€œThe land was allotted to Ritesh Properties and Industries Limited, one of the companies owned by Arora,โ€ Indian Express quoted sources in ED.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Monday raided the residence of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora on Chandigarh Road in Ludhiana, reported Indian Express.

Reports suggest the raid at Aroraโ€™s residence at Hampton Homes colony was in connection with a chunk of land that was allotted to him by the Punjab government some years ago. โ€œThe land was allotted for an industrial project, but the agreement was breached, and the land was used.

โ€œThe land was allotted to Ritesh Properties and Industries Limited, one of the companies owned by Arora,โ€ Indian Express quoted sources in ED.

In his first reaction regarding the searches, Arora said: โ€œI am a law abiding citizen, am not sure about the reason for search operation, will cooperate fully with agencies and make sure all their queries are answered.โ€

Responding to the raids, AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal said: โ€œGod is with the party. There is no need to be scaredโ€ฆ no wrong has been done,โ€ Kejriwal said.
