Alok Verma sacked, CBI likely to initiate inquiry against him

A high-powered committee comprising Justice Sikri, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and senior Congress leader Mallikarjuna Kharge met for over two hours on Thursday to decide the fate of CBI Director Alok Verma.

Verma was reinstated by a Supreme Court order after he was sent on forced leave by the government. The meeting brought bad news for Verma, who was shunted out by the committee.
