Chandigarh, March 28, 2025 – In a major crackdown, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has provisionally attached assets worth Rs 44.55 crore belonging to former Haryana Congress MLA Dharam Singh Chhokkar and his associates. The action, executed by the ED’s Gurugram Zonal Office on March 26, 2025, targets properties linked to Chhokkar, his sons Sikandar Chhokkar and Vikas Chhokkar, and their company, M/s Sai Aaina Farms Pvt. Ltd., under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002.
The seized assets include 13 immovable properties across Delhi, Gurugram, Faridabad, and Panipat, comprising approximately three acres of agricultural land, 2,487 square meters of commercial land, and eight residential flats. Additionally, movable assets worth Rs 96 lakh, including fixed deposit receipts (FDRs) and bank account funds, have been attached. The ED’s investigation stems from an FIR filed by Gurugram Police against Sai Aaina Farms and related entities for alleged fraud and forgery under various IPC sections.
According to sources, the case involves the defrauding of over 3,700 homebuyers and the misappropriation of more than Rs 500 crore. Chhokkar, a former MLA from Samalkha, and his son Vikas are currently absconding, while Sikandar is out on bail. Despite multiple non-bailable warrants, the duo has failed to appear in court, which has now ordered their presence by May 19. The ED had previously raided Chhokkar’s premises last year as part of this probe.
This high-profile action underscores the agency’s efforts to tackle financial misconduct and protect affected homebuyers in Haryana. Further developments in the case are awaited as the investigation continues.
