Locals in Kolkata recall him with armed men and a blue beacon on his car. ANI UP: Police bust fake international police, crime investigation bureau office in Noida; 6 arrested Kolkata: Former Trinamool Congress leader Bibhas Chandra Adhikari, arrested in Noida for running a fake office called the International Police & Crime Investigation Bureau, is alleged to have operated a similar set-up in Kolkata's Beliaghata. Adhikari, his son, and four others were arrested on Saturday night for running the Noida operation. Police said the group posed as government officials, misled the public, and extorted money. It is learnt that Adhikari ran a similar bogus office under the name 'Interpol' in Kolkata. Locals claimed they saw armed men, whom they believed to be policemen, staying with Adhikari. 'We thought he was a senior officer. Armed men accompanied him. He used a blue beacon on his car. We saw him as recently as last month,' a neighbour said. On Saturday, Gautam Budh Nagar police in Noida arrested six men for running the fake International Police & Crime Investigation Bureau office, which deceived the public by impersonating government officials. They allegedly used forged documents, fake IDs, and police-style insignia to extort money. 'We have dismantled a well-planned fraud. The accused set up a fake office in Noida Sector 70 under the guise of the International Police & Crime Investigation Bureau, using police-like insignia and fabricated ministry documents to mislead the public,' said DCP Central Noida, Shakti Mohan Awasthi. 'During the raid, we arrested six suspects and seized extensive evidence, including forged IDs, ministry certificates, cheque books, ATM cards, visiting cards, signboards, mobile phones, and Rs 42,300 in cash,' Awasthi said. A former Trinamool block president from Birbhum's Nalhati, Adhikari was reportedly under investigation by the CBI and Enforcement Directorate in connection with the recruitment scam. A political row has broken out over Adhikari's association with the Trinamool Congress, with the BJP alleging that all fraudulent activities are linked to the party.

'Decision does not fall under...': RBI Governor issues big statement after ICICI bank raises minimum account balance to Rs 50000
RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra New Delhi: In a significant statement after ICICI bank raised minimum account balance to Rs 50,000, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Sanjay Malhotra has said that the monthly minimum average balance requirement will be decided by banks as the decision does not fall under any regulatory jurisdiction. Here are all the details you need to know about what Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Sanjay Malhotra has said on the ICICI bank's action. What has ICICI bank said on monthly minimum average balance requirement? Asked on the sidelines of a financial inclusion programme in Gujarat about the RBI's response to ICICI Bank's new rules, Malhotra said the central bank has left it to the banks to decide the minimum average balance, as per a report carried by IANS news agency. He further said that some banks have fixed this limit at Rs 10,000, while some banks have kept this limit at Rs 2,000 for customers. However, there are many banks that have completely removed it for their customers. 'This decision does not fall under the regulatory domain,' he clarified. What are the new rules at monthly minimum average balance requirement? According to ICICI Bank, customers at metro and urban locations who opened their savings accounts on or after August 1 have to maintain Rs 50,000 monthly average balance to avoid penalties. The minimum average balance for older customers remains Rs 10,000. New customers in semi-urban locations will be required to maintain a minimum average balance of Rs 25,000, and rural customers will have to maintain Rs 10,000. Readers should note that the minimum average balance remains at Rs 5,000 a month for old customers in rural and semi-urban areas. Customers who do not maintain the minimum average balance will be levied a penalty at 6 per cent of the shortfall or Rs 500, whichever is lower. (With inputs from agencies)
