Amarinder informs Punjab Assy of SC rejection of CBI plea in Behbal Kalan & Bargari cases

Chandigarh, Feb 20 (UNI) Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Thursday said that the Supreme Court had vindicated the state government’s stand by rejecting the CBI plea seeking permission to probe the Behbal Kalan and Bargari cases and assured the Assembly that the SIT investigation into the cases would be taken to its logical conclusion.
In a major legal victory for the state government, the Supreme Court had on Thursday morning allowed the state to carry on its investigations into the sacrilege cases and the subsequent police firing in these cases, which were handed over to the CBI by the erstwhile SAD-BJP regime. In view of the CBI’s failure to complete the probe in the cases, the Capt Amarinder government had announced in the House earlier that the cases would be taken back from the central agency and would be investigated by the state government.
Karan Bhariokhe was the advocate on record for the state from the office of Advocate General Atul Nanda.
