Sources in the Enforcement Directorate (ED) said it was conducting searches in several locations, including the residences and offices of Ajit Tyagi, a close associate of Mr Singh, and other businessmen and contractors who allegedly benefited from the policy.
The case relates to allegations that Mr Singh and his associates played a role in the Delhi government's decision to grant licences to liquor shops and distributors in 2020, causing losses to the state exchequer and violating anti-corruption laws.
Mr Singh, who is also a member of the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of Parliament, denied any wrongdoing and accused the central government of political vendetta. Delhi's Former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia is among those who have been arrested in the case.
