Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 544: Transition

The news that CBI Director Vides was about to resign shocked India.

The previous CBI purge was already a hot topic.

Under the hype and guidance of public opinion, many people are attacking Vides.

I didn't expect Vides to do this and directly say he wanted to resign.

The reason for his resignation was that there were such despicable criminals within the Central Bureau of Investigation, and he, as the director, was also responsible.

Although all these corrupt elements were arrested and investigated this time, Vides still felt very guilty, so he decided to resign as an explanation to the public.

This move caused the public's favorability towards Vides to soar.

This is what a responsible official should be.

Have there ever been such officials in the past?

Vides' move quickly gained the support of countless people.

They all supported Vedras in cleaning out the scum within the CBI.

The previous propaganda campaign by the People’s Party’s media was quickly suppressed.

Anyone who dares to speak for the CBI officials under investigation and attack Vidhan Sabha will be attacked by countless people.

In addition to Vides' resignation, there is an even more shocking topic coming up.

That is, Vides recommended Rotun to take over the position of Director of the CBI, saying that this was supported by all members of the CBI.

Regarding this statement, many media outlets also interviewed some officials from the Central Bureau of Investigation.

They naturally confirmed what Vides said.

The current Central Bureau of Investigation is basically composed of people on Vides' side. Even if they are not, they are scared by Vides' move.

Of course, they have not been purged. Although they are not biased towards Vides, they are at least truly neutral.

Although some people may have some objections to Rotun's appointment, upon closer thought, Rotun's appointment is probably in the best interests of the Central Bureau of Investigation.

Because the law enforcement bureau is eyeing them covetously, if someone else takes the position, he will probably be suppressed even more severely by the law enforcement bureau.

The interests of the Central Bureau of Investigation are their fundamental concern.

If the CBI has more power, more benefits can be taken from them.

Otherwise it's the opposite.

They certainly don't want the CBI to really decline.

When it comes to their own interests, they don't have such a big opinion.

As long as Rotten is here, I believe the law enforcement agency will not dare to go so far, and the future may even be better than when Vides was in power.

A high-level meeting within the People's Party.

"Let Rodon be the director of the Central Bureau of Investigation? That's absolutely impossible." Nirmala said.

Their main topic this time was Vides' resignation and Roton's taking over as director.

Vides' sudden move was a surprise to them.

In fact, the previous purge had already put them in a somewhat passive position.

However, with the backlash from various public opinions, Nirmala felt that it would be easier to take down Vides.

But she didn't expect that Vides would resign directly. This was something she had never expected.

Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation, such a powerful position, you just give it up?
"Roden's support is very strong. Almost everyone in the CBI supports him, as do the people," Hermite said. "This is public opinion. If we go against it, there will probably be chaos."

Hermite's position is clear.

His attitude is to insist on letting Rotten take the position.

Only in this way, even if we take a step back later, I believe that Roton can take over as acting director.

"Ermati, are you kidding?" Nirmala stared at Ermit and said bluntly, "The CBI is now full of Vides's people. Even if some of them are not, how dare they say a word of dissent? As for public opinion, what public opinion? We don't need to care about it at all."

"I also don't agree with letting Rawdon take over."

"Yes, Rawdon is too young. The position of Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation is so important that it is no joke. It requires a steady old man to take the position."

"How can a promotion be achieved like this? Luo Dun has changed so many positions recently. How will others view him?"

……

The bigwigs present all spoke up.

Most of them are supporting Nirmala.

There is no way. Nirmala now has a great influence within the BJP. She has gathered a lot of people around her, forming a huge force.

Moreover, Nirmala basically stands on the BJP's side in these matters.

If Roton's power is too great, it will have a significant impact on their People's Party.

Because Rotun is not one of theirs, they must give more consideration to someone who is not under their control.

Even if the Central Bureau of Investigation is suppressed by the Enforcement Bureau, its privileges remain.

The People's Party is still somewhat uneasy about not being able to control such power.

The old immortal sat in the first seat and said nothing.

Vides' move also gave him a headache.

Now that Vides was actually resigning, he must have made some preparations. He had already received the news that the CBI's personnel, especially the retired veterans, had begun to mobilize, and their various connections were exerting their influence.

Some people came to me.

In other words, Vides really wants to promote Rodon to a higher position.

However, Rotun was still at a great disadvantage, and the old immortal could not agree to let Rotun take the position.

He and Nirmala agree on this point.

As for Hermite's support for Rotten, the old immortal can certainly understand it.

After all, Ermit is the Minister of Home Affairs, and the Central Bureau of Investigation is still very important to the Ministry of Home Affairs.

"There are many objections to the appointment of Rotun as director. I think we should discuss it later." The old immortal said.

Although they said they were discussing it again, Hermite actually knew that the old immortal did not agree.

Even if we discuss it again in the future, there will be no results.

"The position of Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation cannot be left vacant. If Vides resigns, someone else must be chosen, right?"

“I recommend…”

Many people spoke up and gave recommendations to people they had good relationships with.

Nirmala didn't say anything at this time, as Vides had almost cleared out all the people she supported.

However, as long as it wasn't Roton who took the throne, she could actually accept it.

Apart from Rotten, there was no one in the CBI that she could be afraid of.

By then, the Enforcement Directorate will definitely be able to completely crush the Central Bureau of Investigation under its feet.

"These guys are not capable of taking on such a big responsibility." Hermite listened to these guys' nonsense. Some people who had no chance at all were also proposed. It was ridiculous.

"Then who do you think is suitable?" someone asked.

"Roden," Hermite replied.

"Are you kidding me?" someone immediately said, "Roden is totally unsuitable."

"That's the position of Director," Hermite said calmly. "Given the current sentiment within the CBI, anyone else might not be able to win the hearts and minds. If we force someone to take the position, it's likely a huge conflict will erupt, which wouldn't be a good thing for us."

"What do you want to say?" Nirmala said in a deep voice.

"I'd like to suggest that since Rotten isn't suitable for the position of director right now, he could definitely be the acting director," Hermite said. "After Vides resigns, Rotten could be put in charge of the CBI's affairs first, as a transitional step. We can discuss the directorship later when the situation calms down."

"You still want Rodon to take the position, right?" Nirmala snorted coldly.

"Of course, I think Rotten is the most suitable. However, directly appointing Rotten as director at this time does have some problems." Hermite said, "In short, I am also trying to stabilize the CBI right now. I have no other ideas."

The old immortal finally understood what Hermite was planning.

However, the old immortal could reluctantly agree to Hermite's proposal, which was indeed a good solution.

If we really designate someone to be the director, there will probably be a riot at the Central Bureau of Investigation.

Moreover, even if I specify it, would that person dare to accept it?

Now the entire Central Bureau of Investigation is almost united. As long as Vides makes some moves, this person will probably be isolated.

Even more serious is that various illegal activities may be uncovered and he may be forced to step down.

Those retired CBI guys like Vides still have a lot of power, especially when almost all of them join forces.

The Enforcement Directorate has indeed put too much pressure on the Central Bureau of Investigation in recent years, making these retired guys unable to sit still.

You know, there are a lot of disagreements among these retired guys, but they are almost all in agreement on this matter, which is very telling about the two of them.

Of course, the most important thing is Roton's current power.

Roden is now the deputy director and director of the Delhi branch, and has almost the power of the first deputy director.

Even without the identity of acting director, when there was no director, Roton was actually the de facto head of the CBI.

It actually doesn’t make much difference whether he is given the identity of acting director or not.

In this case, there is nothing to worry about. I can just consider it as selling Roton.

Compared to the issue of Rawdon's position, the next general election is his top priority.

More than two years have passed quickly, and all major political parties have already been preparing.

"Hermit's suggestion is very good. I think we should let Rotten act as the director first. As for the position of director, it won't be too late to talk about it after the situation stabilizes." said the old immortal.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister?" Nirmala wanted to object.

"That's settled." The old immortal interrupted Nirmala.

Nirmala was still somewhat unwilling, but the old immortal had already made the decision, so she couldn't say anything more.

"Okay, I won't say more about the acting director of Roden, but the candidate for the director of the Maharashtra branch may not be someone from our side. I'm afraid there will be changes there later." Nirmala said.

"This is indeed worthy of attention." The old immortal pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's act, the sooner the better. You will be in charge, is there any problem?"

"No problem, Prime Minister," Nirmala replied immediately.

"Okay, that's it." The old immortal said with a smile.

Everyone present here is a core member, and of course they know what the action that Nirmala and the old immortal are talking about is.
