Rishi K Shukla Takes Charge as CBI Director

[New Delhi]Rishi Kumar Shukla Takes Charge as CBI Director
Shukla, a 1983-batch IPS officer, took charge at a time when the agency is busy in a dirty turf war with the Kolkata Police which has spiralled into a political slugfest between the Centre and West Bengal government.
A perplexed interim CBI chief M Nageswara Rao was seen scrambling resources to counter the state police’s action which not only detained a CBI team which went to question Kolkata Police Commissioner Rajeev Kumar, but also cordoned off the agency’s office at CGO complex in Salt Lake city.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had started a dharna on Sunday evening protesting against the alleged highhandedness of the Centre and insults meted out to her by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah.
Banerjee’s reaction was triggered when a team of CBI officials arrived unannounced at the doors of the Kolkata police chief to question him in connection with Saradha and Rose Valley scams.
