CBI Entry and Jagan wants to Bid Adieu to UK

S Venkateshwari
Chandrababu Naidu of andhra pradesh, who served as chief minister from 2017 to 2019, forbade the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) from going immediately into the state to look into crimes without first receiving permission from the state administration. Growing divisions between Naidu and the narendra Modi-led national democratic alliance (NDA) administration led to this decision. Inspired by Naidu's attitude, a number of non-BJP states, notably West Bengal, implemented similar measures to offset the BJP's central dominance.
 
Chandrababu Naidu, however, overturned this prior ruling and permitted the cbi to function in andhra pradesh without the state government's consent after seizing back power. This action represents a change in the state government's and the central investigative agencies' working relationship. Conversely, former chief minister YS jagan Mohan reddy has petitioned the cbi court seeking authorization to visit the UK for a duration of 20 days. This plea has been filed by both jagan and his close accomplice Vijaysai reddy, who are facing several accusations under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
 

The case has been rescheduled for august 30th by the cbi judge, who has requested that the agency submit a response to Jagan's plea. This development follows the supreme Court's recent condemnation of the cbi for holding up the prosecution of YS jagan in corruption cases. The cbi has been instructed by the supreme court to expedite these cases. In addition, the supreme court is scheduled to consider a plea filed by Sunita to overturn Avinash's bail in the murder of Vivekananda Reddy. In this instance, avinash was not arrested by the CBI.
 

The andhra pradesh government transition and the requirement for tdp backing at the federal level might impact the CBI's strategy in cases concerning YS jagan and his cronies. The supreme Court's pressure on the cbi and Naidu's decision to let the agency to reenter andhra pradesh raise the possibility that Jagan's legal case would intensify.
