- Police registered three FIRs against Garib Kalyan Party, Swatantra Abhivyakti Party, and Bharatiya National Janata Dal for allegedly operating a donation-based tax fraud scheme.

- Authorities expect to file further charges against another political party in the coming week.
What to watch next
- Filing of a likely fourth FIR against an additional political party next week
