Pressure is mounting within the BJP in Uttarakhand for a CBI probe into the Ankita Bhandari murder case. A former minister stated that the issue is tarnishing the party's image and that an impartial investigation is needed to address lingering questions, despite the three accused already receiving life sentences. The victim's family and colleagues reported she was pressured to provide 'extra services' which she refused. The demand for a CBI inquiry aims to ensure no political pressure or concealment affects the investigation.
