Officials from the Odisha Vigilance Anti-Corruption Branch conducted simultaneous raids at multiple locations linked to suspended IAS officer Dhiman Chakma, including his ancestral home in Kanchanpur and a residence in Himachal Pradesh. The raids were carried out as part of an ongoing investigation into a bribery case involving the officer.
According to sources, a team comprising male and female officers from the Odisha Vigilance Anti-Corruption Branch, with assistance from the Kanchanpur Police Station, conducted the raid at Chakma’s ancestral home in Kanchanpur.
