Srinagar, Jan 08: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti welcomed the Supreme Court’s decision on Tuesday to reinstate Alok Verma as CBI director, saying the Centre should now stop “misusing” the investigative agencies for political ends.
“Welcome SCs decision to reinstate #AlokVerma as CBI Dir. (It) reinstates belief in independent institutions of our democracy that are its pillars,” Mufti said in a tweet.
The former chief minister said the Centre should now stop “misusing” the investigative agencies like Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and National Investigation Agency (NIA) for political ends.
“Time for the Central gov to stop misusing its influence to arm twist investigative agencies like (the) NIA & CBI for political vendetta,” she added.
