The tenure of Rishi Kumar Shukla will be keenly watched. The controversy surrounding the removal of Alok Varma has brought a big question on the impartiality and transparency of this premium investigating agency of India. Mr. Shukla has a clean record without any iota of allegations for giving any political favours. Apart from Modi, Justice Gogoi has also shown trust on him. Unfortunately, Mr. Khadge has sent a dissent note objecting that Mr. Shukla has no experience in investigation of corruption cases (but, he supports Rahul Gandhi for PM without the later having no experience in the Government).
