Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan.Hyderabad/New Delhi: The CBI Wednesday questioned Andhra Pradesh Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan in Hyderabad in connection with alleged graft in the procurement of AgustaWestland VVIP choppers for 556.262 million euros (Rs.3,726.96 crore), officials said.

Officials said that the questioning started around 11.30 a.m. and is likely to continue for the next three to four hours.
