Garv-Pride and Honour 2004-Encounter -

The founder director of the CBI was Shri D.P. Kohli who held office from 1st April, 1963 to 31st May, 1968. Before this, he was Inspector-General of Police of the Special Police Establishment from 1955 to 1963. Before that he held responsible positions in police in Madhya Bharat, Uttar Pradesh and Govt. of India. He was Police Chief in Madhya Bharat before joining the SPE. Shri Kohli was awarded 'Padma Bhushan' in 1967 for his distinguished services. Shri Kohli was a visionary who saw in the Special Police Establishment the potential of growing into the national investigative agency. He nurtured the organisation during his long stint as Inspector General and as Director and laid the solid foundation on which the organisation grew over the decades to become what it is today. While inaugurating the 4th Biennial Joint Conference of the CBI and State Anti-Corruption Officers, Shri Kohli told the delegates: "The public expects the highest standard from you both in efficiency and integrity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khukhrain The Khukhrain are an ancient group of eight specific clans of the Khatri caste [1] who originally hailed from the areas of the Salt Range and particularly town of Bhera in Punjab. The names of the eight clans are: Anand, Bhasin, Chadha, Kohli, Sabharwal, Sahni/Sawhney, Sethi and Suri. Later three new subclans originated those were Chandok (Chandhoke, Chandhok, Chandiok), Gandhoke and Ghai. Origin In Ancient period Khukhrain were known as ANAND. The word ANAND was used for the descendents of Raja Ragunandan (ancestor of Lord Raam), thats why Mehrishi Valmiki named the holy book of Hindus as ANAND RAMAYAN.[2] Koshal territorial king Maha Padam Anand defeated Magdha king in 362 BC and ruled from 362 BC to 346 BC. He was succeeded by his eldest son Dhan Anand who ruled in Magdha from 346 BC to 322 BC. Chandragupt Maurya planned a conspiracy along with Chanakya, (he was a Brahmin and first person to introduc mordern politics) and killed Maha Padam Anand. [3] Dhan Anand being a weak king at that time was defeated by Chandragupt Maurya (previously he was Chandragupt Anand, General in Maha Padam Anands Army). [4] Consequently, he along with his seven younger brothers, their families, the loyal soldiers and some citizens fled away and took refugee in Punjab. Some other people migrated to China, Iran (Persia), Afghanistan and Kashmir.KOHLI Kashyap Raja Kualhari Jamsher (Jullandhar) (Jalandhar) Jalandhar to Amritsar Jalandhar to HoshiyaarpurKohli: The word is used by descendants of Raja Kual Hari, based on the name of one of the goddess of North India and Lord Vishnu (Hari), the one who preserves "the Preserver". The word Hari came into existence in holy book Mahabharat in which it means "one who takes away". It is widely believed among Khukhrains that their continuance and survival uptill the present day is owing to their preservance by the Kohli clan.
