The Allegation
The CID probe relates to allegations that signatures of several Trinamool Congress MLAs were forged on a resolution submitted in the West Bengal Vidhan Sabha. The agency issued summons to Abhishek Banerjee for questioning as part of its investigation.
TMC leaders have called the CID action a "political vendetta" and claimed the case is being pursued to target opposition leaders ahead of upcoming political events. They argue that the summons is politically motivated.
Opposition parties have stated that "law should take its own course" and demanded a thorough investigation. They maintain that no one is above the law and the allegations must be probed fairly.
Abhishek Banerjee moved the Calcutta High Court seeking interim protection from arrest and to quash the CID summons. The court is yet to deliver a final verdict on the matter. The case remains sub-judice.
