“Do your duty without fear and so far as integrity is concerned, it goes without saying that you all would uphold it,” was the first message from Anil Kumar Sinha to his officers, after he took over as Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation at the agencyheadquarters here on Wednesday.
Described as a soft-spoken officer by his junior colleagues, Mr. Sinha is said to have a “very simple” lifestyle. His son and daughter are both settled in the United States.
The CBI Director holds an MA in Psychology and M.Phil in Strategic Studies. He has been the recipient of several awards.
Mr. Sinha, who belongs to Bihar and was inducted as an IPS officer into his home cadre in 1979, is recipient of Police Medal for Meritorious Services in the year 2000 and President’s Police Medal for Distinguished Services in 2006.
