CBI conducts searches at premises of former RG Kar Medical College Principal in Kolkata amid corruption probe

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has recently conducted searches at the premises of the former Principal of RG Kar Medical College in Kolkata as part of an ongoing corruption investigation. The searches are reportedly linked to allegations of irregularities and corruption during the tenure of the former Principal. This investigation forms part of a broader probe into corruption cases within the medical and healthcare sector, aiming to uncover misappropriation of funds, abuse of power, and other illicit activities.

The CBI’s action underscores the agency’s commitment to investigating and addressing corruption allegations, particularly in critical sectors such as healthcare, which directly impacts public welfare. This development is part of a series of similar probes where authorities have acted against officials allegedly involved in unethical practices. The searches are expected to lead to further scrutiny of documents and assets linked to the former Principal, which could provide more evidence regarding the scope and scale of the alleged corruption.

The investigation is ongoing, and more details are expected to emerge as the CBI continues its efforts to root out corruption and enforce accountability in public institutions.
