FOUND: Centre using probe agencies to terrorise intimidate jharkhand govt - What They Never Told You

Constant raids by Central investigating agencies in Jharkhand in one case or another have prompted the government led by Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) to dub it as an act intended to terrorise and intimidate it.

“Raids by Central government agencies in Jharkhand on one pretext or another are intended to terrorise the democratically elected government in the State. Raids have been conducted even in cases in which the CBI had submitted closure reports”, senior JMM leader and party spokesperson Supriyo Bhattacharya told The Hindu over phone on Thursday. This was after the CBI raided several premises belonging to former Sports Minister and State Congress leader Bandhu Tirkey in connection with the 34 th National Games scam.

“If these are not intended to intimidate the government by the Central agencies, then what is it? You tell me,” said Mr. Bhattacharya.
