Speaking on the occasion, Pandey said, WhatsApp and telephone numbers were issued by the CBI ACB unit if any of the officials or employees of GST, Income Tax, Railways, Banks or Central Institutions affiliated to the Government of India solicited bribes. “If anyone contacts that number, the CBI ACB will contact the complainant and lodge a complaint and the name will also be kept confidential,” Pandey stated.
