Two women from Kolkata, Dwipika Bhanjo and her daughter Tandra, were arrested by the Odisha Police for allegedly running a Ponzi scheme that defrauded over 34,000 investors in India and Bangladesh. The scheme, operated through their firms Harit Krishi Nidhi Ltd and Transvision Dream Multi Trade Pvt Ltd, collected over Rs 123 crore by offering high returns and bonuses. Dwipika's husband, previously arrested in the case, transferred funds to them. The Economic Offences Wing seized financial records and anticipates further arrests and asset recoveries.
