When the raid proceeds for the 3rd night, the PM and Rameshwar meet. He rallies his political support and threatens to topple the state cabinet unless the Prime Minister agrees to meet him. A relentless Rameshwar meets several MPs politicians, senior officers and even tries to meet the then Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi herself, but to no avail. The central finance minister is forced to call to Amay, but is rebuffed. He meets the then Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, but the CM refuses any aid as the IT department is under the Central government's control and the raid is legal. MP Rameshwar, not willing to accept defeat, goads Amay into letting him leave the house. So, Amay and his team break down the walls, ceilings, staircases and old storerooms (with the help of the map) to find assets worth crores. After a few hours, when all hope is lost, he receives an anonymous letter revealing to him the location of the money in the house, along with a map. He searches every nook and corner of the house with his team to find black money, but to no avail. There he faces hostility from Rameshwar's family but he keeps up his honest attitude. So, Amay and his team plan heavily and head over to Sitagarh. One day, he receives an anonymous tip about the black money hoarded by (Member of Parliament) Rameshwar Singh, the don of Sitagarh, who has evaded paying the income tax for a very long time. The film focuses on the transferred IRS officer Amay Patnaik to Lucknow as Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, who lives happily with his wife Malini.The synopsis below may give away important plot points. Would Amay succeed in the face of an increasingly stubborn and belligerent Tauji forms the crux of the story. When Patnaik is assigned the case of Tauji, a highly influential and feared man in Uttar Pradesh, little does he know that his unerring determination to bring Tauji to justice would culminate in the longest and most challenging raid of his career as also the history of the Income Tax Department of India. Amay Patnaik (Ajay Devgn), an upright and no-nonsense Income Tax officer has already been transferred 49 times in the past seven years owing to his idealistic and courageous disposition to uncover tax frauds, hitting hard the pockets of many a big shot. Set in the 80s in Uttar Pradesh, India, Raid is based on the true story of one of the most high profile raids the country has ever known. A fearless income tax officer raids the mansion of the most powerful man in Lucknow after someone mysteriously draws his attention towards the evidence.
