Chhattisgarh liquor ‘scam’: SC ruling has exposed Centre and ED, claims ex-CM Baghel

Senior Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel has claimed the Supreme Court’s decision in connection with the alleged liquor scam in Chhattisgarh had exposed the Centre for using the Enforcement Directorate to target opposition parties.

The apex court on Monday quashed the money laundering case against former IAS officer Anil Tuteja and his son Yash in the alleged Rs 2,000 crore liquor scam, saying there were no proceeds of the crime.

In a post on X on Monday, former Chhattisgarh chief minister Baghel said the commitment of agencies like the ED should be towards the Constitution and not any political party.
