Alok Verma gets back charge of CBI as SC overturns govt's decision
The Supreme Court has overturned the Centre's decision to send CBI Director Alok Verma on indefinite leave, giving him back the charge of the investigation agency. Verma was asked to proceed on leave following his fallout with CBI Special Director Rakesh Asthana. The judgement was pronounced on two petitions, one filed by Verma and the other by an NGO.
