In connection with the alleged land-for-jobs scam, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids against numerous relatives of former railway minister Lalu Prasad on Friday at various sites in Delhi, the National Capital Region (NCR), and Bihar.
Raids were carried out, according to sources, at Abu Dojana, the leader of the RJD, and Misa Bharti, a daughter of Lalu Prasad who lives in Delhi.
More than 15 places in Delhi, the National Capital Region, and Bihar are the subject of the searches, according to sources. These locations, which comprised the residences and offices of the suspects and the recipients of the suspected land-for-jobs scheme, were simultaneously searched by several teams of the ED.
Following the submission of an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR) and taking cognizance of the Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) case against Lalu Prasad in the matter, the ED conducted these searches in accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.

The government agency conducted these searches days after Lalu Prasad was questioned by the CBI regarding the land-for-jobs issue. On Tuesday, Lalu Prasad was questioned by the CBI for about five hours over two sessions.
The former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi was also questioned by the CBI on Monday for more than five hours at her Patna (Bihar) home.
In the case involving Lalu Prasad, Rabri Devi, and 14 other people, the CBI has already submitted a charge sheet alleging criminal conspiracy and violations of the Prevention of Corruption Act. Lalu Prasad and the other defendants were given the notice to appear before a Delhi court on March 15 after receiving a summons last month.
Bhola Yadav, who served as Lalu Prasad’s officer on special duty while he was the railway minister, as well as Hridayanand Chaudhary, a railway employee and alleged beneficiary of the scandal, and Dharmendra Rai, a second alleged beneficiary, have all been detained by the CBI so far in connection with the case.
Lalu Prasad and a few members of his family are accused by the CBI of accepting land plots in exchange for jobs at the Indian Railways between 2004 and 2009, while he was the Railway Minister. In connection with the investigation, the agency also searched roughly two dozen places in August of last year.
