The CBI is dead - Will there be resurrection?
NOW that the resolution creating CBI has been set aside, there is no CBI - CBI simply does not exist. CBI cannot even file an appeal against the High Court order, because it (CBI) does not exist. Only Union of India can file an appeal against the High Court order. But will they? This is the best opportunity to kill the CBI, which has recently been too much of a nuisance, especially to politicians - reaching right up to the PMO. All these days, we have been talking of the independence of an organisation, which had existed illegally for the past fifty years. CBI had been created mainly to catch the corrupt babus and as long as the CBI had been doing its job religiously getting hold of telephone linemen and Railway clerks knocking off 5 to 10 rupees, everyone was happy. But the CBI grew too big and started arresting politicians and IAS officers and suddenly these powerful people found themselves helpless and stranded.
Now, will the Government of India file an appeal or keep the issue open for debate for another few months - at least till elections are over?
Will Lalu Yadav who lost his MP ship regain it and be released from jail? Will all the cases against Jagan Mohan Reddy in the CBI court in Hyderabad be quashed and will it make a major change in Andhra (or is it Telangana) politics?
What will happen to all those who were convicted by CBI courts and lost their jobs” Will they get compensation?
Days ahead are going to be sensational!
