Reasons given are in paragraph 4. The basic reasons given amongst many others are in paragraph 7 of the interlocutory application. 25. The submission of the Central Bureau of Investigation, if the matter is looked at objectively, is reasonable. In the normal course, the CBI is not meant to see onslaught of investigation the like of which they are facing in Bihar. Financial irregularities committed in matters relating to running of State Public Sector Undertakings has, in fact, become a phenomena. Every cannon of law in the corporate world which applies to State government companies also has been violated. Statutory obligations have been thrown to the wind. The State government companies or Corporations have in fact, grounded their business and functions so much so that a special committee under directions of the Supreme Court is examining disbursement of payment to employees who hitherto have not been paid their salaries for the last ten years. These include retired employees claiming pensions and the heirs of the dead, arrears of pay and pension both. The payments are now being made at the expense of the State exchequer for the defaults and the misdemeanor, which may have been committed by the bureasucrats in running the State companies and corporations. Investigating one default of a State Public Sector undertaking or a handful may be in the normla course of business of the CBI. But a whole lot with a few exceptions is a mass scale violation of the Companies Act, 1956. These State Corporations had been incorporated and registered as Government Companies under section 617. In the circumstances, the court recommends increase of strength for the CBI for the inquiries and investigation which will be caused in these matters of State Corporations within Bihar. 26. These are matters of public audit and accounts and whoever ran the government whenever time it was done the blame will lie on the State of Bihar. The executive and the bureaucracy cannot escape the investigation regardless of rank or position. The CBI is carrying out a public investigation. The State of Bihar is obliged to provide the CBI special accommodation it needs and this suggestion is also recommended. 27. In so far as access to papers are concerned, nothing will stand in the way of the CBI. The CBI is carrying out a public investigation. The State of Bihar is obliged to provide the CBI special accommodation it needs and this suggestion is also recommended. 27. In so far as access to papers are concerned, nothing will stand in the way of the CBI. It shall have access to every record in these matters, regardless where they lie. 28. On behalf of the Chairman, Finance (Bureau of Public Enterprises) Department, Bihar, Patna a counter affidavit has been filed. The counter affidavit contains certain enclosures. In addition, the State Counsel S.C. IV, states that the volumes wrapped in four bundles one in red cloth and three in white are being filed in the court. It has been explained by the State Counsel that these are papers which are being filed in compliance of- the orders of the court dated 5 November 2003 and 13 November 2003. 29. Better late than never these be brought on record and sent to the Registrar General. As these are basic informations, it will be required for the purpose of public audit or returns which are to be examined by the Registrar of Companies/Company Law Board and the CBI. These records will be available to these authorities. In so far as the CBI is concerned, it will be entitled to have copies lifted upon a request being made to the Registrar General. 30. Let a copy of this order be given to the Counsel for the Central Bureau of Investigation and the State Counsel (S.C.IV).
