It was initially created by major general sir Charles Metcalfe Macgregor who was the headquarters general and the head of the intelligence agency in 1887 in London. Later after the execution of the Indian government, this agency started working in 1935 on the country&#8217;s domestic affairs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The primary idea behind the formation of the intelligence bureau is to keep track of all the unique political, social, economic, and terrorist-related matters. It looks after social security and the safety of the people and the country. Many police branches were formed for the fast track of issues, and this police department provided information to this intelligence bureau, and later, this agency worked on the matters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It made many efforts in the execution and expansion of the intelligence bureau. After the independence of India in 1947, all the intelligence agencies were concluded together and named subsidiary intelligence bureaus. The Intelligence Bureau was working for both national and international. Still, due to many lapses in the wars against different countries, it was recommended that the IB would work for internal matters only. The Indian government formed a global agency named raw (research and analysis wing) to handle all international safety-related issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Formed-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 1887<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Motive-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to provide safety to the people and the nation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Headquarters-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Delhi, India<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Official website-<\/b> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mha.gov.in\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.mha.gov.in<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ministry responsible-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Ministry of home affairs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Minister responsible-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Amit shah\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Functions_of_The_Intelligence_Bureau\"><\/span>Functions of The Intelligence Bureau<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The general function of the Intelligence Bureau is to encounter intelligence and terrorism-related tasks.
