- Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) does not have all India jurisdiction as per the terms of the act by which it was established
Choose the correct statements
Correct
Solution(b)
Statement Analysis:
Statement 1 Statement 2 Incorrect Correct The withdrawal of consent did not make the CBI defunct in a state — it retained the power to investigate cases that had been registered before consent was withdrawn. Also, a case registered anywhere else in the country, which involved individuals stationed in these states, allowed the CBI’s jurisdiction to extend to these states The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is governed by The NIA Act, 2008, has jurisdiction across the country. But the CBI is governed by The Delhi Special Police Establishment (DSPE) Act, 1946, and must mandatorily obtain the consent of the state government concerned before beginning to investigate a crime in a state Context – Central Government told the Supreme Court that states do not have any “absolute” power to keep the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) from investigating crimes inside the State.
