That financial scam nicknamed chit-fund scam that has hit the States of West Bengal, Tripura, Assam and Odisha involves collection of nearly 10,000 crores. #MamataVsCBI #mamtablockscbi #MamataBanerjee

More than 25 lakh claims have so far been received by the Commissions of Enquiries set up in the Odisha & West Bengal which is indicative of the magnitude of scam in terms of number of citizens that have been defrauded. #MamtaBanerjee #MamataVsCBI #MamatablocksCBI

Whether the above features call for transfer of ongoing investigation from State Police to CBI. Our answer is in the affirmative. Each one of aspects set out above in our view calls for investigation by independent agency like CBI

#MamtaBanerjee #MamataVsCBI #MamatablocksCBI

It is true that a lot can be said about the independence of CBI as a premier Investigating Agency but so long as there is nothing
substantial affecting its credibility it remains a premier Investigating Agency.

What the CBI was told by Supreme Court

#MamataBanerjee #MamatablocksCBI #WestBengal #MamataVsCBI

Needless to say that State Police currently investigating cases shall provide fullest cooperation to CBI including assistance in terms of men & material to enable CBI to conduct & complete investigation expeditiously.
