The Central government Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP) often accused of using central agencies like the Central Bureau of Investigation(CBI) and National Investigation Agency for their political benefits.
In several instances, we have seen leaders booked by CBI and NIA donning the saffron shawl. After wearing the BJP shawl there will be no issues for the leaders who are facing the cases.
Recently, the Customs Department in God’s Own Country, Kerala has sent shocking waves across the nation with its report on the infamous Gold Smuggling case. The report alleged the role of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.
The Kerala government has claimed that the Customs Department prepared the report on Gold Smuggling Case at the behest of the Central Government. The government smells a political angle behind the report.
To take on the Central Agencies that are working on behalf of the Union Government, the Kerala government led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has decided to prosecute the Central Agencies.
However, locking horns with the Central Agencies is not going to be that easy. As per the rules, the Judicial Commission that will take on the Agencies requires a green signal from the Election Commission.
The Election Commission is also often dubbed as a body that works for the Centre. It is interesting to see how the Election Commission responds to this. If Kerala manages to seek permission to set up the commission, then Kerala sets up an example to other states on how to counter Union Government in dealing with the Central agencies.
