The 2018 approval rule at the centre of claims that Modi weakened CBI independence

A reel attributed to former interim CBI chief M. Nageswara Rao alleges the Modi government changed the law to shield itself from future investigations. Section 17A really did place an approval barrier before certain corruption probes, and Supreme Court judges split over its validity in 2026. The claim about the government's motive remains unproven.

As CJP protesters challenge Gyanesh Kumar over voter-roll revisions, a reel contrasts today’s detentions with Vajpayee’s bullock-cart protest and dissent under earlier prime ministers.
