The Enforcement Directorate (ED) intensified its efforts on Tuesday by conducting raids at the residence of prominent Rajasthan Congress leader Pratap Singh Khachariyawas, according to official sources.

In a determined address to reporters, Khachariyawas declared his innocence and denounced any attempt by the BJP government to leverage the ED for political maneuvers. 'I am not afraid of the ED,' he emphasized.
