Calcutta High Court Demands Virtual Presence of CBI Director in Cash-for-Jobs Case Proceedings
In a significant development, the Calcutta High Court has directed Praveen Sood, the Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), to be virtually present during the court proceedings on October 4. The court’s decision comes amid growing concerns over the slow pace of the CBI’s investigation into the cash-for-jobs scandal.
Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay expressed his dissatisfaction with the progress made by the central agency, suggesting that there appears to be a lack of seriousness in probing the alleged irregularities. After reviewing the case diary submitted by the CBI, the court found a casual approach towards the investigation.
The CBI has previously arrested several individuals believed to be involved in the teacher recruitment scam. However, Justice Gangopadhyay criticized the agency for not taking the probe seriously. In order to establish accountability, the court has mandated the virtual presence of the CBI Director during the October 4 proceedings.
