Sons of Rajasthan Congress Chief Summoned in Money Laundering Case Related to Paper Leak

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned the sons of Govind Singh Dotasra, who is the Chief of the Congress party in Rajasthan, in connection with money laundering charges related to the alleged leak of exam papers for the recruitment of government school teachers last year. This case originated from FIRs filed by the Rajasthan Police against several individuals.

This development is expected to stir controversy in the state, which is currently under Congress rule, as assembly elections are scheduled for later this month. Opposition parties, including leaders like Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who is also facing ED questioning in a liquor policy case, have accused the Modi government of using central agencies to target the Opposition.

Notably, the same central probe agency had conducted a nine-hour search of Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot’s son Vaibhav on October 30 in a separate case involving alleged violations of foreign exchange rules.

Earlier in June, the ED had initiated searches in multiple locations in Rajasthan as part of the investigation into the leak of exam papers. Subsequently, on October 15, the agency reported the seizure of ₹12 lakh in cash and the discovery of “incriminating” documents during a series of searches. Individuals whose premises were searched include Congress leader Dinesh Khodania, Rashtriya Loktantrik Party leader Spurdha Chaudhary, Ashok Kumar Jain, Suresh Dhaka, and others.
