CBI to operate from single office in Kolkata

Currently, the two main units of the central probe agency-the anti-corruption branch (ACB) and the special operation group (SOG)-are operating from two different locations.

The ACB, which is mainly dealing the probe in different financial scams like recruitment irregularities in teaching and non-teaching staff in state-run schools, cattle smuggling and coal smuggling among others, is operating from the CBI's Nizam Palace office in central Kolkata.

On the other hand, the SOG, which is handling the probe on the post-poll violence cases in West Bengal, is operating from the central government office (CGO) complex office at Salt Lake in the northern outskirts of Kolkata.
