      Amid preparations for Assembly elections in Chhattisgarh, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on 20 February 2023 raided multiple locations allegedly linked to Congress leaders.

      The action was taken in a money laundering case related to the alleged coal levy scam in the state. ED conducted raids in Raipur and Durg allegedly linked to eight Congress leaders, office-bearers, and a legislator.

      ED's crackdown began days before the Congress holds its plenary session in Raipur. More than 10,000 Congress functionaries and senior leaders are expected to participate in the event from 24 to 26 February.

      According to officials, the searches are underway since early this morning at over a dozen locations that include those of MLA Devendra Yadav in Bhilai (Durg district), Chhattisgarh Pradesh Congress Committee treasurer Ramgopal Agrawal, chairman of Chhattisgarh State Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board Sushil Sunny Agrawal and party's state spokesperson RP Singh in Raipur.

      The raids also covered some other ruling party leaders.

      They said the ED is investigating those who have been the "beneficiaries" of the proceeds of crime of the alleged coal levy scam perpetrated during the tenure of the current government.
