Modi's biggest mistake in the first 3 years of his rule was following Jai-Italy's agenda of going soft on khangressis.

Of course it's Jai-Italy. If you check the initial tax rates of GST, you can clearly see how absurd the rates for some items are. No wonder some section of traders were so outraged. Those rates were introduced deliberately to create anti-GST sentiment!!

Jai-Italyji is part of the same Lutyens mafia which is called the deep state in India and has members like Ahmed Patel, Kapil Sibal, Chiddu etc. This mafia always protects itself irrespective of who is the PM. And if you study in detail the hounding of Modi and support extended by Jai-Italyji to save him, you will realise that this mafia was playing from both sides.

Twin blows to Karti: CBI custody extended, SC declines relief from ED

NEW DELHI: Former finance minister P Chidambaram’s son Karti suffered twin disappointments in court on Tuesday, with a special court extending his CBI custody until Friday and the Supreme Courtdeclining him protection from fresh summons and possible arrest by the Enforcement Directorate for alleged money laundering.
Karti’s lawyer Abhishek Manu Singhvi had forcefully opposed the CBI’s plea for extension of Karti’s custody, saying the agency had confronted his client for just 25 minutes during the five-day remand.

However, additional solicitor general Tushar Mehta said the agency needed more time to interrogate Karti because witnesses were being “approached” and “evidence was being destroyed”.


The court extended Karti’s remand by three days and said the police needed to complete the investigation.

The SC entertained Karti’s petition questioning the ED’s parallel “roving investigation” into a case already under CBI probe, but refused to grant him interim protection from fresh summons and possible arrest under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

Responding to the arguments of Karti’s lawyer Kapil Sibal, the court said, “We may clarify with immediacy that we have noted Sibal’s submissions only so that it is debated. If we hold in the affirmative with regard to maintainability of the writ petition, then only we shall advert to the propositions which will relate to constitutional rights.”

He is not going down that easily though. His father should also be sent to jail to clip their wings.

Reprieve for Karti Chidambaram: Delhi high court grants him interim relief from ED arrest
 

Justice Indermeet Kaur of the Delhi High Court today recused herself from hearing the bail plea of Karti Chidambaram, arrested by the CBI in the INX Media corruption case.

Justice Kaur, who did not give any reason for her recusal, said she would refer the matter to the Acting Chief Justice for assigning the bail plea to another bench for today itself.

The bail plea was yesterday mentioned before a bench of Acting Chief Justice Gita Mittal and Justice C Hari Shankar and was listed for hearing today.

Karti's parents P Chidambaram and Nalini Chidambaram, both senior advocates, were present in the courtroom.


Question is was judge under some kind of pressure to deliver judgement in favor of someone?

INX Media case: ED moves Supreme Court against Delhi HC order granting interim protection to Karti Chidambaram

Chidu family must be feeling slowly tightening noose around their neck. Hope unlike 2G this case reaches to a useful conclusion. Useful for country and a lesson for all crooksters.

It wont be easy. Chidu family is as elite and influential as they come. Even the supreme court is under pressure. They even submitted an appeal under article 32 when their own guidelines say first go to HC.

Lastly he still has the south indian and tamilian card to play. Those lobbies are strong in the judiciary too.

Unless Both Father and son goes inside together ED and CBI would face problems with proper investigation. Chidu being Rajyasabha member is a big problem, he cannot be sent behind the bars that easily and will keep on manipulating judiciary.

I want to see Chiddu behind bars. Not out of political opposition, but because he manipulated the Ishrat Jahan case shamelessly, demoralizing IB and thus endangering national security (a congress speciality - bhindranwale, JnK rigged elections, Assam mess etc). Is there any corruption and misuse of power this *censored* did not do, and that other crook MMS did not allow?
