"Thousands Crying": Supreme Court Talks Of CBI Probe Into Homeowners' Troubles | Read

The Supreme Court has expressed concern about the alleged nexus between banks and builders and assured that a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation will be held into the grievances of homeowners. A group of homeowners have gone to court, claiming that they are being forced by banks to pay EMIs although they have not obtained possession of flats due to delay by builders and developers. 

"We are not going to certify any institution as bad or good," said Justice Surya Kant, who was heading the two-judge bench hearing the matter. 

"We will definitely have CBI probe. That is clear. Thousands of people are crying. We can't wipe their tears but we can address their issues. Something very effective has to be done in timebound manner," he added. The Central agency has been asked to file a plan on how it intends to tackle the job.
