In the wake of the CBI registering a corruption case against its Special Director Rakesh Asthana, the Congress on Monday indicted the Narendra Modi government for the probe agency's credibility and integrity being questioned.

 "The Prime Minister's blue-eyed boy Gujarat cadre officer of Godra SIT fame infiltrated as No. 2 into the CBI, has now been caught taking bribes," Gandhi tweeted referring to Asthana. "Under this PM, the CBI is a weapon of political vendetta. An institution in terminal decline that's at war with itself," he added.
