Amit Shah Warns “Entitled Dynasts” After Court Order On Probe Agency Chief
New Delhi:
Who is the Enforcement Directorate director is not important because whoever assumes this role will take note of the rampant corruption of a cozy club of entitled dynasts who have an anti-development mindset, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday.
He said this hours after the Supreme Court held as illegal the third extension granted to the Enforcement Directorate chief Sanjay Kumar Mishra and curtailed his extended tenure to July 31.The home minister said those rejoicing over the Supreme Court decision on the Enforcement Directorate (ED) case are delusional for various reasons: the amendments to the CVC Act, which were duly passed by the Parliament, have been upheld.He said the powers of the ED to strike at those who are corrupt and on the wrong side of the law remain the same as the ED is an institution which rises beyond any one individual and is focused on achieving its core objective – i.e., to investigate offences of money laundering and violations of foreign exchange laws.
