CBI DIG Ashwin Shenvi

Shenvi is a 2006-batch Haryana cadre IPS officer. Presently, he is on deputation with the Government of India in CBI. The Calcutta High Court chose him to head the SIT probing alleged teachers’ recruitment scam in West Bengal in 2022.

He has been supervising corruption-related cases at the Chandigarh branch of the central agency. Recently, his team also cracked down on an extortion nexus involving an ED official and a CBI DSP in a scholarship scam. The accused were demanding around Rs 2.5 crore from businessmen. He had also supervised multiple cases related to the Roshni land scam in Jammu and Kashmir.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
