CBI tells Supreme Court 8 States have withdrawn general consent for CBI to operate in its territories
Hence, consent has to be obtained on case to case basis which is time consuming and hampering investigation: CBI to SC.
CBI sent over 150 requests to Maharashtra, Punjab, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Kerala and Mizoram from 2018 to 2021. Consent granted only in 18 percent of the cases.
