Supreme Court highlights legal vacuum as Mamata Banerjee blocks ED raids in West Bengal

The Supreme Court openly criticized West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for interfering with Enforcement Directorate raids, questioning the Bengal government's claim that ED cannot claim fundamental rights violations. It stressed the lack of legal recourse or remedy when state leaders block central investigations, marking a significant judicial concern over federal probe authority. Moving forward, this raises urgent questions on legal frameworks protecting investigative agencies and could influence future state-central legal conflicts.
