The Special Investigation Team (SIT) will comprise two officials each from the CBI and the Andhra Pradesh Police besides a senior FSSAI official.
The bench said the probe by the SIT will be supervised by the CBI Director. Observing that it will not allow the court to be used as a “political battleground“, a bench of Justices B R Gavai and K V Viswanathan passed the order on a batch of pleas, including those seeking a court-monitored probe into the matter. “We don’t want this to turn into a political drama,” the bench observed.

Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told the bench that if there was any element of truth in the allegations, it was unacceptable.
He suggested that the probe by the SIT can be supervised by some senior officials of the central government.
The top court asked Mehta to assist it in deciding whether the investigation by the state-appointed SIT should continue or the probe should be conducted by an independent agency. It had asked the top law officer to ponder over the issue and assist it in this regard. (Maxim News)
