India intelligence and investigation expansion in West बंगाल
Overview
The Indian Union Home Ministry approved the establishment of approximately 40 permanent Subsidiary Intelligence Bureau (SIB) offices in West Bengal’s border districts adjacent to Bangladesh. This initiative involves acquiring roughly 50 acres of land to replace rented facilities, with the goal of enhancing surveillance, intelligence collection, and counter-infiltration operations.
Additionally, the West Bengal state cabinet approved the creation of the region’s first National Investigation Agency (NIA) police station. Located in New Town, Kolkata, the station is intended to manage all NIA-registered cases within the state, removing the previous requirement to route FIRs to the agency’s headquarters in New Delhi.
