Earlier, the Union Minister of Finance and Corporate Affairs, Shri Arun Jaitley congratulated the DRI, its officers and staff on their past performance. He also appreciated the inaugural issue of DRI Publication ‘Smuggling in India Report’ released on the occasion and lauded the idea of presenting DRI Martyr’s Medals, done for the first time.
Over the years, as an organisation, the DRI has carved a niche for itself in the field of investigation and law enforcement, adapting and realigning itself to the ever changing economic scenario. DRI occupies a position of eminence in matters of national security and economic health, playing key role in the Government’s efforts against black money, and in protection of environment and preservation of India’s rich and ancient cultural heritage.
This year the organisation completed 60 years (Diamond jubilee) of its establishment. A function to commemorate the occasion was organised in the national capital here today. The Finance Minister Shri Jaitley was the Chief Guest of the event and the Minister of State (Finance) Shri Shiv Pratap Shukla was the Guest of Honour. Dr. Hasmukh Adhia, Finance Secretary and Ms. Vanaja N Sarna, Chairperson, CBEC were also present among others on the occasion.
