Shillong, March 14: Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, Tejashwi Yadav today dismissed the claims of Enforcement Directorate (ED) of discovering Rs 600 crore proceeds of crime.

He said that the pictures of jewellery belonging to his sisters and their in-laws were presented as recovered items. He said, “The director repeats the same script for these central agencies. He should be changed be it the Home Minister Amit Shah or someone else” Yadav said.
