Punjab desk: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday conducted searches at several places in Punjab, including the premises of AAP MLA Kulwant Singh, as part of a drugs-linked money-laundering investigation and Delhi-liquor scam, officials said.
Different Locations in Mohali, Amritsar and Ludhiana are being searched by ED as part of their investigation. The premises of AAP legislator, who is a renowned builder, in SAS Nagar near here are also covered under the search, officials said.
Last week Punjab Governor Banwarilal Purohit asked the state government to initiate action against two upscale housing projects on the outskirts of the state capital Chandigarh owned by Kulwant Singh for violating environmental laws.
With assets of Rs 250 crore, realtor and former mayor Kulwant Singh, who was the AAP candidate from Mohali Urban in 2022, was the richest among all those contesting the Punjab polls from the district. In 2014, when Kulwant Singh contested the Lok Sabha elections on the Akali Dal ticket from Fatehgarh Sahib, his declared income was Rs 139 crore.
