The Enforcement Directorate is conducting a search and seizure operation in Chhattisgarh in connection with the misappropriation of the District Mineral Foundation Trust's Fund.
The raids are being conducted at 18 places throughout the state. According to investigators, huge amounts of DMF funds were diverted and misappropriated through the Beej Nigam (Seed corporation), Chhattisgarh.
The places currently being raided by ED officials belong to certain vendors, contractors and alleged middlemen who have been charged under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The case pertains to three FIRs registered by the Chhattisgarh police in which the accused were charged for siphoning off government funds by the contractors in collusion with state government officials and political executives.
The DMF is trust by miners set up in all the districts of the state with the aim of working for the benefit of those affected by mining-related projects and activities.
