Jairam Ramesh questions Pema Khandu’s continuance as SC-ordered Arunachal CBI probe moves ahead

New Delhi, Sep 18 (UNI) Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh on Friday stepped up his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the Supreme Court-ordered CBI inquiry into contracts worth Rs 1,270 crore in Arunachal Pradesh, questioning why Chief Minister Pema Khandu continues in office despite allegations surrounding the award of contracts to members of his family.
In a post on social media platform X, Ramesh referred to the Supreme Court’s April 6, 2026 order directing a CBI inquiry into contracts awarded between 2015 and 2025 and alleged that the order had “taken the Modi government by surprise”.
He argued that Khandu, who was Arunachal Pradesh’s PWD Minister during the period under scrutiny, should have resigned or been asked to step down.
