Option 1 : Kerala

The correct answer is Kerala.

  • As per CBI submission in Supreme Court in November 2021, eight Indian states have withdrawn their ‘general consent’ to the CBI for conducting investigations in their territory Kerala is NOT one of them.
  • Recently, Andhra Pradesh has withdrawn the 'general' consent that was given to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to carry out searches and operations in the State without informing the Government.
  • The CBI and all agencies under the Delhi Special Police Establishment (DSPE) Act, 1946, will now have to approach the State government for permission for investigation on a case-by-case basis.
  • The consent is necessary as the jurisdiction of these agencies is confined to Delhi and Union Territories, under this Act.
  • The State decided to withdraw this consent through a notification issued on November 8, 2018.
  • It effectively curtailed the agency's powers in the State without prior permission.
