Top electoral bond purchasers reveal a concerning trend as many are linked to past scrutiny by enforcement agencies. Future Gaming and Hotel Services PR, led by Santiago Martin, bought ₹1,368 crore worth, half before and half after ED searches in May 2023 related to a lottery scam. Similarly, Keventer Food Park Infra Ltd., MKJ Enterprises Ltd., and Madanlal Ltd. from Kolkata, with a common director, Siddharth Gupta, collectively donated ₹573 crore. Notably, Keventer and Madanlal made significant purchases in April-May 2019 amid shared scrutiny. The pattern raises questions about the source and timing of political contributions.
