Gujarat police have lodged a first information report alleging a political donation racket worth roughly Rs 1,143 crore, according to Telangana Today.
The Gujarat police announced the registration of a first information report (FIR) concerning an alleged political donation racket involving sums estimated at Rs 1,143 crore. The filing follows a preliminary inquiry that uncovered financial transactions purportedly linked to political funding activities.
Authorities said the FIR details the scale of the alleged scheme and outlines the investigative steps to be taken, including the seizure of relevant documents and the interrogation of persons connected with the transactions. While the report does not name specific individuals or parties, it underscores the seriousness of the alleged misuse of funds.
The move has drawn attention from political observers, who note that large, undisclosed donations have long been a point of contention in Indian electoral politics. Gujarat officials have pledged a thorough probe to determine the origins and beneficiaries of the purported contributions.
No arrests have been reported so far, and the investigation is expected to continue over the coming weeks as law‑enforcement agencies gather further evidence.
