The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday summoned Rajbir Singh Ghuman, the officer on special duty (OSD) attached to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, for a detailed questioning session. The move comes amid a growing probe into alleged financial irregularities linked to the OSD's handling of transfer and posting matters within the state administration.
During the interrogation, Ghuman was asked a total of 70 questions over a span of ten hours, focusing on possible misuse of authority, suspicious fund flows, and procedural breaches in the posting of government officials.
