CBI gave SC false info on Atal-era HZL sale: Centre

The Centre on Monday accused the CBI of presenting fundamentally wrong facts regarding PSU Hindustan Zinc’s disinvestment during the Vajpayee government’s tenure and said it had misled the Supreme Court to direct registration of a fresh FIR for probe into alleged irregularities. A bench of Justices Chandrachud and Surya Kant said the SC had carefully considered the documents and investigation reports submitted by the CBI came to the conclusion that the issue required a thorough investigation.
