In a surprising turn of events, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) launched raids on Friday morning at the residence of Telangana Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy in Hyderabad. Reports reveal that 16 teams from the national capital were dispatched to conduct searches across 15 locations associated with the minister, focusing on key documents related to his business, Shyama Construction Company Private Limited.

This isn’t the first time Minister Ponguleti has faced scrutiny; there have been previous allegations against him. Earlier this year, ahead of the general elections, the ED conducted similar raids but refrained from issuing any official statements regarding those operations.

The sudden raids have ignited a wave of panic within Telangana's political circles, raising questions about the minister's future and the broader implications for the state's governance. As tensions rise, the Telangana Congress party has yet to release an official response, leaving many to speculate on the potential fallout.

This article delves into the details of the raids, the historical context surrounding Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, and the current political climate in Telangana as the situation unfolds.
