EaseMyTrip Distances Itself from Mahadev Betting Controversy

EaseMyTrip, a travel booking platform, denies any ties with the Mahadev betting app following searches by the Enforcement Directorate at its co-founder Nishant Pitti's premises. The searches, part of a money laundering investigation, did not result in seizures at EaseMyTrip's offices, and the company pledges full cooperation.

EaseMyTrip, a prominent travel booking platform, has firmly denied any involvement with the Mahadev betting app following recent raids by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The ED conducted these searches under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002, focusing on co-founder Nishant Pitti's premises.

Despite the extensive multi-state operation, which encompassed 55 locations including major cities like Delhi and Mumbai, no incriminating evidence or documents were found at EaseMyTrip's office. The company clarified that no seizures were made, distancing itself from any connections to the betting scandal.

An EaseMyTrip spokesperson emphasized the organization's commitment to transparency and cooperation with authorities throughout the investigation, asserting that they have neither direct nor indirect ties to any betting platforms.
