Bhubaneswar: Vigilance sleuths on Saturday raided Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE) strong room in-charge Surya Narayan Mohanty’s residence near Forest Park here in a disproportionate assets (DA) case.
Simultaneous raids were also carried out at five other places, including Mohanty’s two other houses located at Samantarapur and Jyotsna Garden Apartment.

In Berhampur, CBI officers arrested Ashok Kumar Sahu, an overseer at the office of the superintendent of posts, while allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 10,000 from the branch postmaster Chinmaya Patra.
