New Delhi: State Minister for Personnel Jitendra Singh on Sunday said the state government must clarify whether they trust the CBI because they attract the general agreement given to the institution to operate in their jurisdiction under it under public pressure.

Deputy CBI SP Seema Pahuda, who investigated the case of Hathres rape and the rape of Gudia Himachal Pradesh, received a gold medal for the best investigative officers from the minister.
Handling ‘investment ceremony’, Minister of State for Personnel, public complaints and retirement expressed concerns that countries attract the general agreement given to the CBI to investigate cases but they, however, adhering to prerogative rights to provide selective approval where it is suitable for them .
Calling broader introspection by government, society and the nation in general, Singh asks if this type of courtesy must be followed.
He said that countries must clarify whether they trust CBI or not, or whether they believe the agency selectively because they continue to provide selective approval in cases that are suitable for them.
According to the Law of the Delhi Special Police Formation that regulates the CBI, the agency requires approval from the state government to operate in their jurisdiction.
