Finally!!! Great job!
It is a mystery why the Saravana Group does not attract the attention of any agency.
Raid them thoroughly and destroy this nest of black money hungry snakes.
Tax raids were almost forgotten during the last 10 years of congress rule! Why? Same intelligence was there, but it was used to force the target to give donations to party fund.
Reliance Jewelers and Gujjus are not making good business. Time to raid these south Indian companies.
missionaries money. their family has three different groups.. one more gold loan group having more than 10000 branches in all over India, even they penetrated place like munger,jamalpur, gonda, like small towns.. Where ever they working they placed kerla Christian should be there and he/she is responsible & coordinator between local church authority & foreign donor/ conversion group.
