Asserting that a proper investigation is being conducted into the matter, the Central Government has told the Supreme Court that there is no need for a separate CBI probe into the events leading up to the Tablighi Jamaat convention in Nizamuddin, Delhi last March.
In this regard, the Central Government has submitted that police investigation in the case is being conducted on a day-to-day basis and efforts are being made to complete the same in a time-bound manner.
As such, the Court has been told that the plea for a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the matter does not merit any consideration.
The submission was made in a counter affidavit filed on behalf of the Union Ministry of Home Affairs through under secretary Ram Vilas Premi in a petition by a Jammu-based lawyer Supriya Pandita.
