This is not the first time that Getak has been summoned by the ED in connection with a major coal smuggling scam. But he evaded the summons every time.

Last September, emergency investigators conducted raids and search operations at many residences of Ghatak and his relatives in Asansol and Kolkata in West Burdwan district. The minister also faced a marathon interrogation at that point.
