According to officials, the probe agency began its inquiry into the funding of Himalayan Institute of Alternatives Ladakh (HIAL) two months ago. It is also reviewing Mr Wangchuk's visit to Pakistan on February 6 this year, the officials added.
The developments coincide with accusations against Mr Wangchuk that he incited a mob that turned violent over the demand for statehood for Ladakh.
