We all condemn the action of the CBI to freeze the bank accounts of Sakshi news( Jagathi publications) and Sakshi TV without even issuing notices to the firm . CBI is suppose to work as an independent body but it seems to be following the directions of political leaders who are taking their grudge against YS JAGAN.
We are surprised why the CBI is not acting in a similar way on the Andhra Pradesh ministers who have issued the GO's for land allocation during the late YSR's regime ?? inspite of instructions from the Honorable Supreme court.
It is a clear indication that the CBI is acting under political pressures to shut the mouth of the media house/democracy that employs more than 20,000 people. Who would be responsible for these employees and their families if the CBI acts in this non democratic way ??
Would CBI act in the same fashion if JAGAN was in the Congress still ??
This has never happened in the history of India and it is a shame that this is happening now when we boast ourselves as the largest democracy in the 21st century.
We sincerely request everyone with democratic values to condemn this.

This is pure political vendetta. You cant just destroy 20000 jobs because you dont like someone. Shame on the CBI.
Where is the justice? CBI has become a puppet for these politicians. Leave the media alone.
Think about the families of those employees who rely on this job for food. How can they be so cruel?
UNFAIR!! Targeted harassment of Sakshi just because of Jagan. Everyone knows the truth behind this.
cbi should do their job properly not follow orders like dogs. total abuse of power.
