Notices have also been issued to some media houses in Delhi asking them to disclose the source which informed them about the ED raids at the residence of Soren.‘BJP pressure won’t work’The ED has recovered Rs 35 lakh unexplained cash, fake stamps and several incriminating papers during the raids conducted at the locations linked to Congress MLA Amba Prasad, her relatives and close associates.
