"Six teams of Lokayukta carried out searches at multiple locations in Bhopal and Bairagarh," he added.

The MP Lokayukta have found that Ramesh Hingorani has invested in the real estate business in Bhopal and other places in the state. His family has been accused of selling government properties (land) to other real estate developers.
Last year, MP Police demolished a marriage garden owned by Hingorani's family members in the Bairagarh area of Bhopal.
