ED Raids in Bihar Police Constable Recruitment Scam
Imagine a test to become a police officer in Bihar.
Some people cheated by getting the test questions early and selling them to others.
The government found out, and now the ED (like a financial police) is investigating because they think the cheaters made a lot of money illegally.
They raided houses and offices in several cities.
The investigation is also linked to another big cheating case involving a medical school entrance exam.
This means that the people who made the police test cheat are also involved with the medical school entrance exam cheating.
The ED is looking into how the money was made, who was involved, and where the money went.
Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids in multiple states related to a money laundering probe in the 2023 Bihar police constable recruitment.

Raids were conducted in Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal targeting agents, syndicate members, and associates.
