General Consent to CBI
In a significant development, the Tamil Nadu government has decided to withdraw the general consent accorded to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to conduct probes in the state.
The general consent accorded to the CBI allows the agency to seamlessly investigate corruption cases involving central government employees.
It facilitates the agency’s access to conduct investigations without seeking specific permission for each case.
The Tamil Nadu government joins a growing list of states that have withdrawn the general consent accorded to the CBI. This list includes West Bengal, Rajasthan, Kerala, Mizoram, Punjab, Telangana, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, and Meghalaya.
