Lok Janshakti Party president Chirag Paswan, who has been an early votary of a CBI probe in the matter, said the SC’s verdict has “respected” sentiments of crores of people.
In a tweet, he expressed confidence that the CBI will not only bring out truth but also “expose” those who tried to mislead the probe in the case of alleged suicide.
BJP general secretary P Muralidhar Rao said, “Supreme Court”s welcome verdict on #CBIForSSR has given relief to millions; his family members, relatives, friends, fans, followers and the people who are for justice. Hope investigation will be smooth, swift & fair. Power of people and power of judiciary are intact.”
The JD(U) has also welcomed the verdict.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld the transfer of an FIR, lodged at Patna against actress Rhea Chakraborty and others for allegedly abetting the suicide of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, to the CBI.
The apex court said that the Bihar government is competent to transfer the case to the CBI for investigation.
