Developments in CBI seriously damaging Indian republic: CPI-M

October 23, 2018 23:15

The CPI-M on Tuesday said the current developments in the country's premier investigative agency Central Bureau of Investigation have seriously damaged the Indian republic and must be resisted.

"The polit bureau considers these developments are seriously damaging the Indian Republic and must be resisted tooth and nail," the Left party said in a statement.

It said the recent happenings in the CBI show the degree of damage that is being caused by the present government at the Centre to Constitutional authorities and institutions of parliamentary democracy in India.

"The undermining of the parliament itself, interference in the judiciary, manipulation of institutions like the CBI are not due to poor 'governance' but due to malafide intentions to undermine the secular democratic foundations of the Indian Constitution," the CPI-M statement said.
