New Delhi: CBI on Tuesday conducted search operations at Congress MP Karti Chidambaram's home and offices over allegations of bribery. Seven premises linked to Karti Chidambaram - the son of former Union Minister P Chidambaram - and his associates were searched across Chennai, Mumbai, Odisha, and Delhi.
The investigative agency has registered a fresh case against Karti Chidambaram, sources say, accusing him of receiving ₹ 50 lakh as bribe to facilitate the visa of 250 Chinese nationals for a power project in Punjab between 2010-14.

"I have lost count, how many times has it been? Must be a record," Karti tweeted without specifying.
