The searches began this morning from Vaswani’s home at Bairagarh, a suburb of Bhopal, and followed on to other premises including hotels and a co-operative bank run by him and family, I-T officials said.

Though I-T officials did not provide any details, the searches are believed to be part of the ongoing cash clean up drive in wake of demonetisation.
