Justice I.A. Ansari, former chief justice of Gauhati HC, says Supreme Court must answer the questions of constitutionality he had raised in his 2013 judgment.
On 1 February, activist-lawyer Prashant Bhushan had said AG ‘misled the court’ about PM-chaired committee approving M. Nageshwar Rao as interim CBI chief.
The Delhi HC judge, known for 'bold pronouncements', is at the heart of the latest row in the judiciary as proposals to transfer him have been stalled.

It is about time the SC took the bull by the horns. Till now the CBI was misused it appears quite regularly , It is an organization which as always was more feared by the common man than the rich and wealth and politically connected. Depending on the times the CBI has been used to varying degrees by political parties in a dictatorial manner or in a relatively benign manner simply to keep people in line. Now it is also being used as an election tool with great vengeance. Therefore given the times and probable worsening of the situation in the future – the SC must address the issue. Poor India.
Modi never questioned CBI when he was under interrogation for post Godhra riots….. That’s cooperative federalism…. Now that Mamta by her tantrums has threatened that federalism…..
It is a rather quixotic viewpoint with doctrinaire adherence to what Dr. Ambedkar discussed in the constituent assembly. CBI is in existence since 1963. To dub it as unconstitutional seems to totally unpractical and will cause anarchy in the federal arrangement. Let us not forget, the Apex Court itself has many times in the past, constituted SITs with the help of CBI and shifted important investigations from state police to CBI.
