Conspirators use CBI against Jagan
Taking forward the conspiracy hatched against the YSR Congress Party president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, the CBI unveiled its machination during the hearing of his bail petition on Friday in the Supreme Court and played the role of villain in ensuring bail was denied to Jagan.
The CBI’s ploy that it needed more time to complete the investigation has only been the extension of the conspiracy hatched against Jagan by Congress and TDP long ago and while covering its failure to ferret out any evidence against Jagan all these months of investigation, the CBI is also trying to project TDP government’s misdeeds as those of the YSR regime.
There were signs of the strengthening of the conspiracy against Jagan when the TDP MPs met the Union Finance Minister Chidambaram on Thursday followed by a phone call to him by TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu.
Hours after the meeting and the phone call, the conspiracy was exposed lock, stock and barrel when the Enforcement Directorate issued notices attaching the properties of Sakshi and those of some companies which invested in the Jagan-owned companies.
Even legal experts were shocked to hear from Supreme Court that Jagan can’t seek bail till March 31, 2013 which is the deadline given for CBI to complete the investigation. The entire show by CBI indicates that the conspiracy against Jagan is being sharpened further and further by the conspirators.
The main essence of the case is quid-pro-quo investments into Jagan-owned companies for allotments of land and granting of concessions to some companies during the YSR regime. But instead of probing the decisions of the governments first, the CBI is only trying to find out the sources of investments into Jagan companies.
It must be noted that the issue of quid-pro-quo arises only when the decisions of the Government allotting land and extending concessions to the companies are found to be wrong. However, without ascertaining the wrongness of the decisions, how can the CBI probe the investments? If the decisions of the Government are not wrong, the investments also couldn’t be wrong.
