During the operation, vigilance officials reportedly carried out detailed measurements of the entire office building and inspected every section thoroughly. Documents stored at the office were examined, with assistance from local administrative staff and office employees.

So far, the Vigilance Bureau has not issued an official statement regarding the exact reason behind the raids or the nature of the documents seized for investigation.

In view of the raids, Punjab Police have tightened security in the surrounding areas. Heavy police deployment has been made near Majithia’s Green Avenue house, with barricades set up several metres from the residence to prevent public movement.

Majithia has previously faced vigilance investigations in similar disproportionate assets cases, and his properties have been raided earlier as well.
