The agency was putting his political rivals behind bars in fabricated cases, the party alleged after Modi said that the CBI has earned the faith of people through its work and techniques.
Addressing the diamond jubilee celebrations of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Modi said even today when a case remains unsolved, there are demands for handing it over to the CBI and asked officers to take action against the corrupt, however powerful, without any hesitation.
प्रधानमंत्री मोदी जी ने CBI की शान में क़सीदे पढ़े हैं।
सोचने वाली बात है कि ये तारीफ़ CBI की कार्यशैली के लिए है या इसलिए की CBI उनकी जेब में है।
CM रहते Modi जी ने CBI को "Congress Bureau of Investigation" कहा था।

Reacting to the prime minister’s remarks, AAP Rajya Sabha MP and national spokesperson Sanjay Singh told reporters,” The prime minister was singing paeans for the CBI today, heaping praise on it.”
CBI सरकार का तोता बन गया है 🦜—Modi जी ने कहा था
आपको एक उदाहरण नहीं मिलेगा, जब CBI Director के दफ़्तर को Seal कर दिया था
2018 में हुआ जब मोदी जी PM थे—Director Alok Verma के पास Rafale की जांच होने वाली थी
उनकी पेंशन अभी तक नहीं बनी
आज आपके लिए CBI अच्छी है?

”When he was the Gujarat chief minister, he described the same CBI as the Congress Bureau of Investigation and alleged that the Congress-led UPA government was using the agency as a tool to destroy his government in the state,” the AAP leader said at a press conference, playing a purported video of Modi’s remarks made in the past.
क्या CBI ने Lalit Modi,
20,000 Crore लेकर भागे Nirav Modi, Mehul Choksi के ख़िलाफ़ कार्रवाई की?Adani ने 42,000 करोड़ का कालाधन अपनी Co. में लगाया
क्या CBI ने कार्रवाई की?
CBI ने केवल BJP के इशारे पर झूठे मुक़दमे कर सरकारों को गिराने की कार्रवाई की है

”The same CBI has become good for you when it started dancing to your tunes and putting in jail your political rivals in fabricated cases,” Singh charged, attacking the prime minister.
On Modi talking about his government’s action against black money and corruption, the AAP leader said, “Did CBI take action against black money? “Did CBI take action against Lalit Modi, Mehul Choksi, Nirav Modi, Vijay Mallya?” Singh also raised the Adani issue and asked what action the central probe agency has taken in this matter so far.
“The CBI lodged fabricated cases to topple governments, scare and intimidate (political) rivals and put them behind bars which we saw in Delhi and other states,” the AAP MP charged.
