The Enforcement Directorate has provisionally attached 126 immovable assets across Punjab and Delhi, valued at more than ₹5,000 crore, as part of ongoing investigations.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) announced the provisional attachment of 126 immovable properties located in the states of Punjab and the National Capital Territory of Delhi. The assets, which include residential and commercial premises, have been valued at over ₹5,000 crore collectively.
The move is part of the ED's ongoing investigations into alleged financial irregularities, though specific details of the cases have not been disclosed. The provisional attachment means the properties cannot be sold, transferred, or otherwise dealt with until the agency completes its inquiry.
Authorities said the action follows standard legal procedures and that affected owners will be given an opportunity to contest the attachment in court. The ED has not released the names of the individuals or entities linked to the properties.
The large-scale attachment underscores the agency's focus on curbing money‑laundering and other financial crimes across major economic hubs in northern India.
Further updates are expected as the investigations progress and the court reviews the provisional orders.
