A new unit of the state's anti-corruption bureau was inaugurated in the town of Hansi, Haryana.
The Haryana government inaugurated a fresh unit of its anti-corruption bureau in the town of Hansi. The ceremony marked the expansion of the state's investigative network into the Hisar district, aiming to strengthen vigilance against graft at the local level.
State officials highlighted that the new office will coordinate investigations, receive complaints, and conduct raids in collaboration with district police. By situating a dedicated team in Hansi, authorities expect faster response times and greater accessibility for citizens reporting misconduct.
The launch aligns with Haryana's broader strategy to curb corruption across public services, complementing recent reforms such as digitised procurement and stricter audit mechanisms. Officials indicated that the Hansi unit will operate under the same legal framework as other anti-corruption bureaus, ensuring uniformity in procedures and accountability.
Local leaders welcomed the move, noting that a permanent presence of the bureau could deter illicit practices in municipal bodies and state-run enterprises. The inauguration underscores the government's commitment to transparent governance and reinforces anti-corruption efforts in the region.
