Prannoy Roy raided days after Nidhi Razdan told Sambit Patra to leave her show

Randomly picking up a charter and reading sentences will get you nowhere. I already said that CBI is not the de facto investigation agency in that matters. Do you know what the word means? Fact is, these offences are dime a dozen, the CBI will not usurp the jurisdiction of ED or EOW unless specifically directed by government or court. The CBI simply does not have the bandwidth to deal with things that can be investigated by other agencies. Since in this case it is not the court which has directed it, it means that the government has. If you can direct me to any instance in the past few decades where the CBI has investigated an economic offence without court or government direction then I will agree to your position.

Again, I don't expect you to understand any of this, you are free to believe that it is the government's role to use state machinery against opponents. Good for you.

LOL.... so the CBI charter is not the guiding light, your random post in pdf is

Enforcement directorate job is to primarily investigate Money Laundering and FEMA violation.

Economic Offices of all kind comes under the preview of the premier investigating agency in India, i.e. the CBI.

This particular investigation by CBI was w.r.t a complaint by a shareholder of ICICI bank and NDTV.

As per the CBI statement, "The investigation are not regarding the default in loan repayment; but relate to the wrongful gain of ₹ 48 crore to the promoters — Dr. Prannoy Roy, Smt Radhika Roy, M/s RRPR Holdings Pvt Ltd and a corresponding wrongful loss to the ICICI bank arising from their collusion and criminal conspiracy."

Criminal conspiracy is firmly the responsibility of CBI and not ED.

Their statement provides further clarification "NDTV in its statement questions the jurisdiction of CBI by stating that ICICI is a private bank. It is clarified that the Honourable Supreme Court in the case of Ramesh Gelli vs CBI of 2016, held that the provisions of Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 are applicable to the officials of private banks. Therefore, CBI has jurisdiction to take up investigation of the cases of private banks."


SO you see, your claims fall FLAT.

Regarding the "bandwidth" of CBI, the CBI Director is a better person to make that decision on which cases to try and what not to. Now unless he has abdicated that role in YOUR Favor, you again have no place making any sort of directives FOR the CBI.


Finally I am glad you have admitted that the NDTV was an "Opponent" of the Govt. That is a strange place to be. I can understand a Foreign nation to be an "opponent", but why is a Media house an "opponent" of the Indian govt. ? What is their AGENDA ?


Either way, there is going to be NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGES provided to NDTV. Let the law take its own course. Isn't that what they wanted for Modi when he was being put on Media trial ? ....... those who live by the sword, die by it.


PS: BTW here is some good news. The Enforcement Directorate has issued showcause notice to NDTV Ltd for bringing foreign investments of around Rs 2,030 crore into the parent company between 2007-10 allegedly in violation of Foreign Exchange Management Act (Fema) guideline


I hope this settles the role of the ED in this case.


But it gets worse ,

SEBI finally initiates action against NDTV, promoters

Absurd logic some people give, even if we consider above to be true does two wrong make it right? Have you read in details what NDTV did, opening 10 shell companies making the dubious transaction. For once try not to go by what is fed to you without using logic. My logic goes after everyone who is at fault, instead of saying he is not been punished so ignore me. Plus that comparison is at fault. Adani is a businessman and they do take loans everyone does. He is targeted for no reason, as he is considered close to BJP.
1) Adani has not made any fraud.
2) Loans were given by UPA
3) He is paying the loans.

Please tell me why Kejriwal is against raid on someone who has done fraud.

Adani has not made any frauds

Adani companies facing multiple financial crime, corruption probes
Adani Group Accused of Evading ₹1,000 Crore Taxes
Adani being investigated for alleged involvement in US$4.4bn coal scam...

He is only getting away because he is the "Jijaji" of some one in power

Modi government cancels Rs 200cr penalty: Achhe din for Adani only
Customs boss who exposed 5500 cr scam against Adani Group shunted

And you speak of logic

Dude the complaint against NDTV chief was made by some random guy and CBI was at their doors without verifying or investigating it. Speaks volumes about what this is all about. And Modi government has had such pattern of harassing their opponents.

Police face court rap over arrests of AAP legislators
13 AAP MLAs booked in two years, Delhi Police face court rap
SC slams Modi govt for 'spurious' case against Teesta Setalvad
Apex Court pulls up Modi for frivolous case against activist

There are no businessmen in India who has not done any Fraud. Adani is no saint, my comment is purely in reference to loans he is availing. I have not heard if he is not paying loan etc. Again, agree that lot of people who do fraud and I am not blind that BJP is acting against those who are not with them. However, I totally not accept an excuse from Aap that they should not be checked because someone else is bigger fraud. Kejriwal has sucessfully degraded principles for Aap. Soon it will become like Lalu.
