The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday launched several searches in connection with a money laundering probe related to alleged irregularities in the Jharkhand Rural Development Department, official sources said.
They said FBI investigators under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) are raiding around two dozen places, including the state capital Ranchi, Jamshedpur and Delhi.
The money-laundering case stems from a complaint by the state watchdog's office about some alleged kickbacks paid in lieu of providing government work, and sources said the raids are aimed at gathering more evidence on the allegations.
The premises of Jharkhand Rural Development Department official and some entry operators (hawala dealers) and brokers are covered, they said.
