Ignoring own orders, Supreme Court has kept case in limbo since 2018
The Supreme Court is set to hear a plea to lift a seven-year-old stay on a CBI probe into tiger poaching in Corbett Tiger Reserve. The probe had suggested forest officials' connivance with poachers. The CBI itself has sought vacation of the stay, citing preliminary findings of irregularities and cover-ups. An environmentalist argues the prolonged stay hinders dismantling poaching networks.
