Overview

• The Enforcement Directorate said it executed search operations under PMLA Section 17 at 13 locations across Delhi-NCR, including Saurabh Bharadwaj’s residence.
• The case is linked to the ED’s ECIR based on ACB FIR No. 37/2025 registered on June 26 against former Delhi health ministers, private contractors and unknown officials.
• Premises of private contractors and developers were searched, with sites reported in West Patel Nagar and Kasturba Gandhi Marg among those covered.
• Investigators cite examples such as an ICU hospital plan reported at roughly 50% completion after about ₹800 crore spent and the LNJP expansion cost rising from ₹488 crore to ₹1,135 crore.
• The ED has not announced any seizures or detailed findings, as AAP calls the action politically driven and says the cited period predates Bharadwaj’s ministership, while BJP leaders claim the raids validate their allegations.
