The Supreme Court has assured advocate Prashant Bhushan that a petition to establish a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate allegations of quid pro quo, corruption, and kickbacks in electoral bond disclosures will be heard soon. The petition, filed by Common Cause and the Centre for Public Interest Litigation, alleges that investigative agencies like the CBI, ED, and I-T Department have been compromised, as several companies under investigation have made substantial donations to the ruling party. The investigation aims to uncover the conspiracy involving company officials, government officials, political party functionaries, and potentially corrupt agency officers.
