Jodhpur: Income Tax Department teams on Thursday conducted raids at different offices of the state's famous coaching institute. According to sources, the raids were conducted at the Jodhpur, Jaipur, Delhi and other offices of the institute to probe tax evasion.
The IT Department team reached the coaching centre's Jalore Gate office in Jodhpur early Thursday morning with a police squad and started the investigation.
