Central Bureau of Investigation

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is the premier investigating agency in India, operating under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions. Established in 1941, it evolved into its current form in 1963 with objectives that include maintaining law and order, preventing corruption, safeguarding national economic interests and protecting public properties. Its vast functions cover major criminal probes, anti-corruption cases, economic offences, special crimes and other high-profile cases that are sensitive or necessitate centralized investigation. The CBI is known for its professional efficacy, impartiality, and the comprehensive nature of its investigations.
