Basing on a complaint in this regard, a 25-member team, including three DSPs of the anti-corruption department, carried out simultaneous raids on Biswal’s office at Uditnagar in Sundargarh district and his residence at Pokhariput and relative’s house at Patrapada in Bhubaneswar.

The team also searched his ancestral house at Nimikheta in Khurda district.
