The Supreme Court has summoned Arunachal Pradesh's Chief Secretary and Principal Secretary (Home) to appear on August 24, following the Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) report of non-cooperation by the state government in a probe. The investigation concerns allegations that public works contracts were preferentially awarded to firms linked to Chief Minister Pema Khandu's family. The court directed the officials to explain the lack of compliance with its earlier orders amid ongoing scrutiny of the state's cooperation.
