The Kerala cabinet has decided to revoke the general consent given to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to investigate cases in the state. The agency will have to get prior permission from the state to start an investigation. The decision was taken at a cabinet meeting on Wednesday and Kerala has joined other non-BJP ruled states like Maharashtra in doing so.
