Raipur (Chhattisgarh), October 21 (ANI): Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel on October 20 questioned the Centre in connection with the Mahadev online betting app case asking why it hasn't still banned the app. In an exclusive interview with ANI, Baghel asked why the Centre is not doing an investigation into the matter while the state held a probe and arrested 400 people in connection with the case. "In the entire country, only two or three states might have done an investigation on this. We have done an investigation. More than 400 people have been arrested. We have ordered lookout notices," CM Baghel said while speaking to ANI. "However the State Government cannot ban this App, only the Central Government can do this. Why are they not banning the App? Have they taken election funds from them? Why investigations and arrests are not being done in this case? We have done an investigation, why are you not doing an investigation? The biggest question is what are your relations with them?” said the Chhattisgarh Chief Minister.
