has become the tenth state to withdraw general Consent to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Its twomonth-old order was cited in court in the wake of the cashfor-MLA scandal in which BJP is demanding an investigation by the central agency.
Dismissing the charges, BJP functionaries moved the Telangana High Court and requested a CBI inquiry. Under Delhi Special Police Establishment Act, 1946, general consent of a State Government is necessary for CBI to operate in that state.
