Rourkela: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Friday conducted raids on the house of Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP)’s New Plate Miller DGM Rajib Ranjan and six other different places in connection with tender irregularities.

Ranjan’s house is being searched for his alleged complicity in the equipment procurement-related irregularities which had come to the fore in 2016.

Seven teams of the CBI conducted raids simultaneously at seven places including Sector-17, Sector-18, Koel Nagar and RSP office.

Though the details of the raid outcome are yet to be known, it is learnt that many documents were seized from the offices and houses of the RSP officer.

CBI had on Jan 9, 2017 arrested the then Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) Executive Director (Works) BP Burma for allegedly taking bribe of Rs 1 lakh to pass a tender. The Central investigating agency had also seized Rs 20 lakh cash of Rs 2000 denomination and some important documents from his possession.

Rajiv Ranjan was the technical advisor of BP Burma when the irregularity had come to the light.
