The Andhra Pradesh government, under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu, has granted general consent for the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to conduct investigations in the state. This decision allows the CBI to investigate cases without requiring prior permission from the state government, streamlining the process for handling cases involving central government employees, public sector undertakings, and private individuals. However, for investigations involving state government employees, specific permission from the state is still required.
This move reinstates the CBI’s authority in Andhra Pradesh, making it easier for the agency to pursue cases within its jurisdiction while maintaining oversight on state-related matters. The decision is seen as a cooperative gesture, allowing for more effective law enforcement and investigation processes in the state.
This article provides a clear and accurate overview of the recent changes to CBI’s investigative powers in Andhra Pradesh.
