While the Enforcement Directorate (ED) is yet to disclose about the outcome of the raids conducted on Jujhar Transport group yesterday, it was the Income Tax Department that started its raid on the same group today. The I-T raid on Gurdeep Singh Jujhar’s residential and all working premises started this noon.

The officials of the department are tight-lipped on sharing any details as they feel “this would be too early to say anything”.

The investigation wing of the Income Tax Department raided the Jujhar Transport group and Fastway group. Dozens of premises in Ludhiana, Delhi, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan were raided by I-T teams. Out of the raided premises three are residential, which include Singh’s Ludhiana home, while others are commercial premises. Action started around 12 noon. More than 100 I-T

officials and police personnel simultaneously raided the premises.

The raids are still on and teams are at Grand Walk Mall, Green City home, Jawaddi office, etc.
