The Maharashtra government on Wednesday ordered that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) would be required to take the state's permission before probing cases here.

The order, through Home Department Under Secretary Kailas Gaikwad, has been issued under the Delhi Special Police Establishment Act, 1946.

Vide the order, the state government has withdrawn the "general consent" given to the CBI since February 1989, and now the agency will need to approach the government for permission before initiating any investigations on a case by case basis.

Sanjay Raut, Shiv Sena on Wednesday reacted on the decision made by Maharashtra government to withdraw its consent to CBI to probe cases in state. He said,"In case of a national issue, CBI has authority to investigate. We had to take this decision because of its interference in the matters of the state already being probed by our police."
