Allahabad HC Orders Detailed CBI Reply in Rahul Gandhi Assets Case, Allows ED Action
The Allahabad High Court has directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to file a more detailed affidavit outlining progress in the disproportionate assets case against Rahul Gandhi, following dissatisfaction with the agency's earlier response. The court also authorized the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to act if any illegality is found during its probe. The case stems from allegations by BJP worker S. Vignesh Shishir, and the next hearing is scheduled for August 20.
