Nomination tampering case: State challenges single bench CBI probe order
MP | 22 June 2023 | Kolkata: The state government on Thursday approached a division bench of the Calcutta High Court, challenging the single bench’s order of a CBI probe into allegations that nomination papers filed by candidates of opposition parties had been tampered with by the returning officer.
The state government approached the High Court’s division bench of Justice Arijit Banerjee challenging the decision of Justice Amrita Sinha’s single-judge bench.
The matter is scheduled to come up for hearing again on Friday. The state requested a fast-track hearing of the matter.
The Single Bench of Justice Sinha had opined that since the allegations are against an officer who is acting according to the directives of the State respondents and is also responsible for conducting the election in a free and fair manner, it may not be possible for the State agency to act in an independent way.
Hence, a CBI probe was ordered.
