Mamata Banerjee's TMC Paid Rs 160 Crore to A Little-Known Company to Buy Jets and Helicopters

The Enforcement Directorate investigation into a Kolkata-based aviation company has uncovered significant financial transactions involving West Bengal's ruling party. According to the probe, the Trinamool Congress allegedly transferred Rs 160 crore from its party treasury to a relatively small and lesser-known firm named Carewell Aviation India Private Limited. The funds were reportedly allocated for the procurement of aircraft, including jets and helicopters, for party use. Central agencies are currently examining the source of these funds, the business dealings between the political party and the aviation firm, and whether any regulatory or financial norms were violated during these high-value transactions. Further investigation into the matter is currently underway by the federal agency as part of a broader financial inquiry in the state.
