Rise in Enforcement Directorate’s Action Under BJP Rule

The data presented by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) highlights a significant surge in its activities under the BJP-led government compared to the UPA era. Over the past ten years, the ED has intensified its efforts, witnessing a staggering increase in searches, arrests, and asset attachments. Notably, the agency recorded a substantial rise in PMLA cases, convictions, and provisional attachment orders during this period.

This surge in action has led to a higher number of prosecutions and disposal of charge sheets, marking a significant shift in the approach towards combating financial crimes. The statistics underscore the government’s commitment to tackling corruption and money laundering, albeit amid allegations of political targeting by opposition parties.
