Chief Minister <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/Arvind+Kejriwal-all" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Arvind Kejriwal</a> said time of hundreds of sleuths of the Enforcement Directorate and the Central Bureau of Investigation is being wasted for &ldquo;dirty politics&rdquo;.
The ED carried out searches at about 35 locations in Delhi, Punjab and Hyderabad, the sources. Some liquor distributors, firms and linked entities were searched after the agency obtained some new leads in the case during questioning of various accused, they added.

The money laundering case stems from an FIR by the CBI that had named Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia as an accused among others. The ED has conducted over 103 raids in this case so far.
Kejriwal on Friday tweeted, &ldquo;Over 500 raids, more than 300 officials have been working round the clock for three months to find evidence against Manish Sisodia. Nothing has been found because he has not done anything.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Time of so many officers is being wasted for one&rsquo;s dirty politics. How will the country progress like this,&rdquo; he asked.
The Excise Policy 2021-22, formulated on the basis of an expert committee report, was implemented on November 17 last year and retail licences were issued under it to private bidders for 849 vends across the city, divided into 32 zones.&nbsp;
