Apart from raiding their residences, the ED officials also searched the skill centre in Raipur Rani and checked the records. According to a TOI news report, the doctor brothers are suspected to be linked with the alleged forest scam case linked to former Uttarakhand Minister Harak Singh Rawat.
The ED officials on the same day raided a dozen locations in Delhi, Chandigarh and Uttarakhand in connection with the case. The latest vigilance operation against the properties of Harak Singh Rawat was ordered by Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami.
During Rawat's tenure as the state forest minister in the BJP Government, he and some of his departmental officers had come under serious allegations related to their involvement in illegal tree cutting and construction in the Pakhro range of Corbett Park under the Tiger Safari Project.
As per the Forest Survey of India (FSI) report, more than 6,000 trees were illegally cut in the Corbett Tiger Reserve (CTR) against the permission of 163 for the Pakhru tiger safari. However, the state forest department refuted the FSI's claims and said that some technical issues needed to be resolved before finally accepting the report.
