“Mr Modi’s threats and intimidations will only strengthen the resolve of voters who know this is just election drama reflecting the BJP’s desperation,” Ramesh said.
This came on the same day when the Enforcement Directorate (ED) claimed that it recorded the statement of a ‘cash courier’ who alleged Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel received Rs 508 crore from the Mahadev betting app promoters based in the UAE.
The Enforcement Directorate had also recently raided the premises of Rajasthan Congress president Govind Singh Dotasra in Jaipur and Sikar as part of its money laundering investigation linked to the recruitment exam paper leak case.
Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot’s son Vaibhav Gehlot was also questioned by the probe agency recently in connection with a case.
