Bengaluru: Karnataka MLA and former minister Zameer Ahmed Khan on Friday said he had nothing to worry about the ED raids as all his transactions were clear and transparent.
He stated that powerful Muslim leaders in all the states are being shortlisted in the country and are being subjected to harassment.
He was speaking to reporters after visiting the Hazrat Hameed Shah Qadri and Hazrat Muhib Shah Qadri Darga on Friday here in the city.
“I constructed a house and they are treating this as a crime. The ED raids on me had a motive and they’ve fulfilled their wish to raid me. All my property belongs to poor people. And as long as I am active in politics, I will not let down the people who have trusted me and voted me to power” the former minister said.

Daycare chemotherapy centres to be set up in district hospitals, announces Dr. Sharanaparakash Patil
Belagavi: Medical Education Minister Dr. Sharanaparakash Rudrappa Patil on Tuesday said the State government plans to establish day-care chemotherapy centres in all district hospitals across Karnataka to make cancer treatment more accessible.
Replying to a question raised by BJP MLC M.P. Kushalappa during the Question Hour in the Legislative Council, the minister said it was not feasible for cancer patients from various districts to travel repeatedly to Kidwai Memorial Institute in Bengaluru. To address this issue, the government is taking steps to establish cancer care centers in other districts in collaboration with the Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology.
Providing details of cancer treatment at Kidwai, Dr. Patil said that over the past three years, 41,512 cancer patients have received treatment at the institute. Treatment included surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these, depending on the type and stage of cancer.
Between 2022 and 2024, a total of 12,781 patients underwent surgery, 14,423 patients received radiation therapy, and over 28,370 patients were administered chemotherapy, he said.
The minister further noted that more than 110 patients were provided bone marrow transplants, an otherwise expensive procedure, free of cost at the institute during the same period.
The proposed day-care chemotherapy centers, he said, would significantly reduce the burden on patients and improve access to timely cancer treatment at the district level.
