The Enforcement Directorate (ED) probe triggered a strong reaction from West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee after it conducted searches in Kolkata linked to political consultancy firm I-PAC.

According to officials, the ED carried out searches at two locations in the city—the central Kolkata residence of Pratik Jain, a senior functionary associated with I-PAC, and the firm's office at the Godrej Waterside complex in Salt Lake's Sector V. Jain is known to be closely involved in shaping the TMC's election strategies. 

The raids led to political tension in Kolkata, with TMC leaders questioning the timing and intent of the action. TMC leaders gathered outside the Salt Lake office after the ED's action, reported by India Today.
