Priyam Saraswat, known for showing unique homes in India, recently visited a mansion in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, that is almost covered in 24-carat gold. In the video, he showed rooms where the walls, ceilings and even switchboards are coated with gold. The mansion also has a rare collection of old and luxury cars. Saraswat entered the house after getting permission from the owner, Anoop Agarwal, who works as a government contractor building roads and bridges. However, the video caused a lot of criticism.
Social media users accused the owner of misusing public funds for personal luxury, sparking intense backlash. As a result, Saraswat deleted the original video. However, the clip resurfaced after being shared by the official Twitter account of the Kerala Congress, which questioned the public’s silence and demanded accountability from the wealthy contractor.
Taking to X (Formerly Twitter), the political party wrote, “Why are our highways collapsing, bridges falling into the river? Find the answers here. The Govt contractor from Indore has built a house where taps and switches are made of gold. He has ED proofed himself by building a Gau Shala in his house. People who wanted to ED to raid the Pani puri wala who earned 40 lakhs by working hard wouldn’t want the ED to visit this gentleman’s house.”

Reacting to the post, a user asked, “Will EC, ED, IT raid the house now and will investigate how a government contractor can live in such a lavish villa?”
Another shared, “In India, flaunting riches gets a salute, fixing roads gets a shrug. Only the Pani puri wala gets grilled for working hard.”
“No wonder the condition of Roads in MP is pathetic,” a comment read.
An individual stated, “Why isn’t ED doing anything. This man and his CM connections must be investigated immediately.”
Another wondered, “That cow shed is definitely built for the video, definitely temporary.”
Tagging Income Tax Department, one more wrote, “Bridges collapse even before inauguration, and roads get potholes within a year of service because of you people. You create more corruption than you stop.”
In the deleted video, Anoop Agarwal shared how his journey began. He said that his family of 25 people owned only one petrol pump, and he soon understood that it wouldn’t be enough to manage everything. So, he decided to enter government contract work. Over time, his company started taking projects like building roads, bridges and other government structures.
