The Jet Set: How TMC's Aviation Adventures Raise Questions of Influence and Accountability The Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigation into a Kolkata based aviation company has revealed a complex web of transactions between the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and Carewell Aviation India Pvt Ltd.
The ED found that TMC paid Rs 160 crore to purchase an Embraer jet and an Agusta VIP helicopter, which were then rented back to the party at inflated rates.
The deal bears all the hallmarks of an "artificial commercial arrangement" designed to conceal a more sinister reality.
