Following the removal of CBI Director Alok Verma, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee took a dig at the CBI, dubbing the organisation as “BBI (BJP Bureau of Investigation)” on Wednesday.
Her comments came on a day when Verma moved the Supreme Court against his removal as CBI Chief.
“CBI has now become so-called BBI (BJP Bureau of Investigation), very unfortunate,” Mamata tweeted on Wednesday.
Verma and CBI’s Special Director Rakesh Asthana were instructed to go on leave late on Tuesday night and CBI’s Joint Director M Nageshwara Rao was asked to perform the duties of CBI Director as per an order issued by the Department of Personnel and Training.
The two officers were asked to go on leave after their spat came out in the open resulting in a major embarrassment for CBI.
