Former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel accuses BJP of using ED raids to defame him. ED teams searched the residences of Baghel and his son in Padumnagar, Bhilai. The ED has summoned Chaitanya Baghel, son of the former Chief Minister, for questioning regarding the alleged multi-crore liquor scam. Protesters stopped an ED car after spotting a currency-counting machine being taken away. Amid the scuffle, Congress worker Sushil alias Sunny Agarwal allegedly hurled a stone at the vehicle, shattering its windshield. The police have since registered an FIR against 25 persons on charges of obstructing government work, vandalism, and blocking roads. Officials have indicated that arrests are imminent and arrests are likely to be made. The raids were conducted by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with the Mahadev Satta App case, yet no evidence has been found against me. “My name was dragged into the liquor scam despite the court giving me a clean chit. These raids are nothing but an attempt to frame and defame me,” he said.
