In a major tax evasion probe, the Income Tax Department's raids on the Odisha-based distillery linked to Congress MP Dhiraj Kumar Sahu's family result in an unprecedented ₹353.5 crore cash seizure, marking India's largest ever. Using cutting-edge technology, officials now deploy geo-surveillance systems to detect potential hidden gold at Sahu's residences. The raids, initiated on December 6, target alleged tax evasion and "off-the-book" transactions. The BJP seizes the opportunity to counter opposition claims, while Prime Minister Modi promises the return of "looted money" amid growing public scrutiny.
