In a significant crackdown on alleged corruption, the Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) initiated a series of widespread raids on Tuesday, September 16, 2025. The targets included properties linked to Ambedkar, an Additional Divisional Engineer in the state’s Electricity Department, and members of his family. These operations were launched following the registration of a case against him for possessing assets disproportionate to his known sources of income.
The meticulously planned searches involved 15 dedicated teams, simultaneously covering 18 different locations across the state, including major cities like Hyderabad, Nalgonda, Nizamabad, and Medak. During these ongoing investigations, officials made a staggering discovery: a cash pile exceeding ₹2 crore, found neatly stacked in bundles at the residence of one of Ambedkar’s relatives. Further updates on this developing story are expected as the raids continue and the ACB’s inquiry deepens.
